Pizza place is open or closed depending on the day. Mostly closed. Was a liquor store attached to it but closed years ago. Sure looks like a good town to shoot pistols in the air on a Saturday night but those darn Canadian gun laws....

A brief snow storm that rolled through today. Here it is from the backside of it after we drove through it on way to town as it heads east.

They have been calling for snow for a week, predicting three to six inches.
It started a few minutes ago.
We will see if the weather guessers have a clue.

Tomorrow, I'm expecting the third powerful Nor'Easter in as many weeks. The last one lit the night sky with frequent lightening and delivered 8" of heavy, wet, snow to my house along with 60mph wind gusts. The combination of snow and wind dropped trees and branches all over CT, including two that smashed through my vinyl border fence. I was lucky to only be without power for 48 hours and I own a generator for the furnace, fridge, and well. Tomorrow promises to have less wind, but heavy, wet, snow again.

I'm so looking forward to Spring. My daffodils are already about 6" tall, so it can't be far off. Right? ;)

Many of Tina's flowers have already bloomed and the Fruit trees have buds on them. I hope this late snow doesn't kill all the spring buds and flowers for this year. We got about four to six inches so far and it's still lightly snowing at 6pm. :roll:

No 70's yet here but have had some mid 60's. Been pretty wet the last couple of weeks and can see some new snow on the surrounding hills. We're at about 800 ft. elevation but are right next to the Cascade Range foothills and can see some of the higher mountain peaks.

The goats are on all pasture now and are upset about not getting any hay. They do get a very small amount of dry cob in the morning, it's their high point of the day.

I traded the blade for the mower deck on my tractor last week and mowed my yard.
