Snowed In

7:12

Next Door Neighbors

We are back at the lake, warm and comfy in our house. Evie has always dreamed of a heavy snowfall and she got it. We received another six inches last night, close to two feet covering the ground with more to come. It's a white yard as I look out on the gray sky and lake and numerous tundra swans are swimming as we listen to their cries. It's 8:20, and the wind has picked up, and it has begun to snow, almost like a blizzard. I am going to have fun shoveling on and off during the day.

Wednesday went about as well as we could have asked for. The roads to Cleveland, Erie, and the lake were clear, with hardly any snow falling. It was windy, however, with snow often blowing across the road. We left around 8:00, stopped once at Love's on the Ohio border, and arrived at the lake around 11:30.

The best part, however, was our neighbors shoveled our walk from our parking area so we could get in the house. How lucky we are. We spent a good half hour unpacking the car, then putting stuff away but by noon, we were sitting on our couches, with our devices, looking out at the snow piles on our rhododendrons, yard and lake.

Night Time

I was happy to be back in a routine and took a short nap, read, watched some TV and had a piece of pizza for lunch. By 5:00, we were celebrating our arrival with a Manhattan, cheese, and crackers, listening to the news. We had chili which Evie had pulled out of the freezer for dinner and watched House Of Cards until Evie went up to bed then I watched some college basketball until 9:30 and went up and read and slept.
