Where We Live, Part II

As you may have read, Europe has been battered by a snowstorm.  It snowed all day on Friday so Grant got out of school early.  Since that was the last day before Christmas break, that means they did nothing for a shorter amount of time.  Lori was supposed to fly home from England that night, but that wasn't to be.  She was very lucky to get out the next morning....most of the airports in Great Britain have been closed all weekend.  (FYI...she flew out of Liverpool which is named John Lennon Airport)

And then there's Kate.  The girl who has seen her Christmas flights cancelled or missed each of the last two years.  It looked like that opportunity would present itself again, but we were lucky and she arrived only an hour or two late.  She was lucky as well; there were plenty of flights from the US that were cancelled. 

I thought I would use this opportunity to give you some more photo's of where we live.  The shots are similar to the last posting; only the season has changed.  We've had about 9 inches of snow.  I made very good use of my new snow tires.  There was no wind, so the branches are loaded down; it's quite beautiful.  We're supposed to have rain by Wednesday so we'll enjoy it while we can. 




The Canadians across the canal should be feeling right at home.


Dog in Jail

I hope that those tulip bulbs are nice and warm underground.
