Good afternoon GH.  I waited until now to type this blog, because I wanted to have a chance to take some additional pictures. Plus, I spent the morning reading the end of a short novel called The Marseille Caper, by French writer, Peter Mayle.  Not a long read, but a fun read, for someone who has visited that area of France.

Currently, the temperature on the desktop is a brisk 21 degrees.  We are expecting a high today of 25 degrees, and tomorrow, 45 degrees is a strong possibility. My thanks to Mary for letting me stay in all weekend, rather than insisting that we go out somewhere.  I didn't go out for the Irish Jam yesterday, because the snow was so intense at times.  We actually experienced some white out conditions during the day.  We probably got three to four inches overall.  We both decided that the snow could wait until tomorrow to melt or be moved.  My aching back thanks her.

Sugar the Weather Dog has been cooperative.  She likes her walks, but has been accepting of my desire to avoid the outdoors and the slippery conditions.  I am pretty certain that by tomorrow, she will insist that she take me for a walk.  By then, I may be ready.

Some of the pictures that I took may show the snow falling at its heaviest.  I know that some show my friends from the neighborhood menagerie behind us.  I got the changes made in the man-cave, and I await Adam's critique. Personally, I like the new additions.

We had our...Tea time this AM while watching UP w/ Chris Hayes. My breakfast was an English muffin with peanut butter, and then I read for awhile. Later, Mary made a great lunch of baked tofu and potato salad.  Both were excellent.  Sugar in her alternative job as Sous Dog, also thought they were good, at least the potato salad.

So, without further ado, here are the pictures. Ciao.

As you can see, the snow was falling at a fast clip yesterday afternoon.

Not much accumulation on the front porch this time.

Once again, you can see the size of the falling flakes.

Undisturbed, and it will stay that way until tomorrow.

Just to make a point.

As the snow falls on my friends from the menagerie. 

Sugar cooperating.

See, 3 - 4 inches of accumulation.

Falling faster.

Why?  Why not!

Will it ever end?

An unfinished driveway.

At least this time, Ragus could look out on an unclogged driveway entrance.
