Thanks Carcajou, so far your prayers have been answered.My blessings this morning to those digging out from the storm and who may have lost power. May your troubles be few.
Wind starting to kick up again. A little over two feet of snow, drifts up to a meter or so. After I strapped on my snowshoes and checked the chimney, I have remained indoors. (Got a virus. Yuck.) Woodstove is warm. Getting sunnier. Ducks bored. I invited them outside, and they demurred.
