October 12, 2008


View of the day-The old farmer's almanac was right...snow in early October...our trees with a heavy load of snow.

We got up to a dreary day...no rain or snow, just dark skies that threatened for the first part of the day. The afternoon saw a change as the forecasted snowflakes started falling...and falling...and falling. There was quite an accumulation as you can see by the picture, and that was taken at about the 2/3 point of the "blizzard".

The rest of the day was was pretty laid back...Al watched football, then went into town for a few groceries...then watched some more football...and baseball...and more football. Marilyn continued unpacking and can finally see the light at the end of the tunnel...good thing too, since her back was all but healed up and she managed to go back to square one when she pulled the same muscle again. An early night with some Aleve and sleep should help...

A phone call from our farmer in Pingree told us they had 2 inches of rain over the weekend, so we will be at home for another day or two...getting organized, and...

...thank goodness there is more football on TV tomorrow...
