Snow Day



It was a weather situation. The North Wind was blowing. Then it rained and rained. Next it switched to snow. Then it got even colder.

This is the morning after. The Fuzz and his Sweetie took a stroll out there to enjoy the fluffy white sights. We don't see much of this around here. Of course there was no school, and no work.

You can see how the wind plastered the snow on this post. You may also notice the power lines back there. They weren't doing us much good at that point though. The power went out around 5 AM. The Fuzz called his Boss Man and was told not to bother coming in. He was satisfied to hear this and stayed in bed a bit longer.

After a walk in all this frosty beauty, it was time to think about some breakfast.
With our more modern kitchen equipment out of action, it was time to resort to the Old Wood Stove. Some folks claim food cooked on a wood stove tastes better. I don't know if this can actually be proven, but I will testify that breakfast was delicious. Later in the morning, the power came back up.

For some reason our internet was still down though, which is why we had to wait 'till now for this Exciting Post.

And regarding our latest Mystery Pix- Congratulations to "woodie" who seems to have hit it dead on. It is in fact a watering can. Many thanks to all who participated in our latest Mystery Pix.

ah, stovetop breakfast, yum. we had to heat coffee water on the gas logs, not the best option but better than no caffeine. glad to see you had come nice snow.

We never lost power... but then we didn't have quite that much. The buses still ran which meant I went to work. No such thing as a snow day for Carolina!!
