Good morning, matina and Katy and Alessa . . . actually, already past noon here, on a somewhat gray Saturday.
I was on the phone to my brother, checking up on how he's doing after quite a big 'nor'easter' that hit his area with between 14 and 24 inches of snow (35-61 cm). Because the ground had thawed, there was an added difficulty level in plowing, and my brother got 'bogged' once (with three tons of sand on board) and had to be pulled out by his son. As well, one truck had windscreen wiper problems and another had some other problem. They worked again on Friday, cleaning up driveways and areas they couldn't get to on Thursday, and as of this evening, he still has a couple of jobs waiting for Saturday . . . at least one rather remote and hard-to-plow driveway. Anyhow, he's OK and already feeling better. My sister-in-law had two days off from work, because the local roads were so bad and Thursday even had 'white-out' condition and gale winds.

The Friday morning photo shows the beautiful scene (looking towards the ocean and Acadia National Park) after the snow had stopped.
Hi to br bear and Ice, Stretton and John, and all the TFWBL regulars.
One visitor today and then I have to get back into the thermal image viewing. I'm now 30% through all the work.
Fuzzies are just great . . . taking it easy this weekend!
