friday

"The snow has begun in the gloaming....".... I think it's the gloaming now, and, as exepected, snow is falling. It just started to coat the ground, except the streets and sidewalks. The bushes and rails have an accumulation. It's wintery cold, but not bad. Except for the dark, of course.

It is not slippery or icy at all. The snow is heavy and steady, but nice.

Today my family joins me. We stop in to see Penny. Gene, my news man, is not here..probably communting problems. Only one of the amigos comes in, and he's later than usual.

My guest photographer has to hustle to school. Alas, it is not cancelled.
