GUESS WHAT!! IT'S BEEN A LONG TIME, OR I SHOULD SAY ABOUT 10 DAYS SINCE I LAST WROTE ANYTHING DOWN. IT SEEMS LIKE FOREVER. THINGS HAVE STILL BEEN GOING ON; STILL DO NOT HAVE RAILROAD PARTS ISSUE SOLVED YET. HOPEFULLY SOON.
YESTERDAY WE HAD A SNOWSTORM THAT STARTED ABOUT 4:30 IN THE MORNING AND LASTED ALL DAY. WE ENDED UP WITH ABOUT 7-9 INCHES. THAT'S A BUNCH WHEN YOU THINK THAT THE GROUND WAS ALMOST BARE. PROBABLY THE LAST TIME THIS SPRING THE TREES WILL BE DECORATED IN WHITE AND EVERYTHING ELSE DECKED OUT WITH A WHITE CARPET. IT'S A WET SLIPPERY SNOW THAT MAKES YOU PLAY "SIT DOWN" (NOT SNOW ANGELS) WHENEVER YOU DON'T PLANT YOU FEET AT AN ANGLE WHEN CLIMBING A HILL. THE SQUIRRELS AND RABBITS HAVE TO HOP UP TO GET ANY PROGRESS ON THEIR JOURNEYS. AS THE WIND OCCASIONALLY MOVES THE TREE BRANCHES, THERE ARE NEW SNOW FALLS. IT WILL BE SAD TO SEE THE WINTER WONDERLAND GO, BUT THE GROUND UNDER THAT COVER IS ALREADY THAWED.
AS OF A WEEK AGO WE WERE IN THE MUD SEASON. YOU WALK IN THE MUD, DRIVE IN THE MUD, THE COWS WALK IN THE MUD, BOOTS RUNS IN THE MUD. IT'S THE DAY AFTER THE FIRST DAY OF SPRING. MAYBE WARMER WEATHER IS COMING SOON. HOPEFULLY NOT REAL WARM. WE NEED A NICE SLOW WARM UP OVER THE NEXT FEW DAYS SO WE DON'T GET TORRENTS OF WATER MOVING THE SOILS DOWN THE HILLSIDES.
