Got Snow?
I just checked the snow and there are 5 inches. D1 left for an appointment about 7:40, you can see a lot of snow in her tracks. It’s up to the storm door, so I shoveled it away after I took these shots. Papa said so few showed up at work, they will probably be …

Weather? In The Winter? In Michigan?
Snow is expected today in Michigan. No kidding, it’s winter and there will be snow; hard to believe. Folks, since we had the first flake this winter, the weather men and women have been singing and dancing, talking about the lack of money to clear the roads, the problems commuting, and all the stuff they …

Another Goodbye
GS1 flew out of here yesterday. Sometime today he flies to his new duty station in Japan on a military transport. Folks, this was much harder than any time in the past. He’ll be there two+ years, and the odds of Papa and I traveling that far are very limited. GS1 managed to finish his …

Not Much – But a Summer Photo
You probably won’t hear much from me for the rest of the week. S-Dad has an eye appointment tomorrow. I need to do some shopping, some cooking, some baking and get ready for a fun weekend with our family. Right now, I sewing some dresses for my granddaughters. I need to finish them and clean …

More on the Deer
Thanks to all of you who sent good wishes, and commented on my hunting trip. I do have a couple more comments (of course). S-dad came to help us, and we had quite a morning yesterday, while Papa cut, S-Dad cut or washed, and I wrapped. We cubed on a lot of the steak, and …
