February

The Coles are housebound and have been for a couple of days. We do not have nearly the snow that people to the south have, but we have plenty!
The back of the house is getting the drifts, so Gary has headed out to snow blow. The wind is incredible as it blows the snow around in white outs. This has been some winter for sure! We had hopes of getting out of here and going south to visit the family this week, but their weather is worse than ours. It is certainly a winter to be remembered.

We have been chasing doctors and hospitals much of the winter as Louise tries to deal with a heart condition. Last week was spent in Bangor, and things are looking good at the moment.

We all seem to have one thing in common - a desire for this winter to be over.  Meanwhile we knit, cook, watch television, and dream of other places and times, such as these.
Won't it be great when the grass is green, the trees have leaves, the lawn needs mowing, and we're complaining that it is hot? Right now it is hard to imagine. More storms on the way.
