Break out the food on the porch... T'was nothing for WashDC, but the outlying regions to the west (yup, that's where the hacienda is) had a good dumping of very wet snow followed by rain. Was funny watching neighbors who decided to did out of the almost 6" of heart-attack-inducing slush in the rain. Being a snow country native I started & kept up on clearing the driveway & didn't have to get drenched while digging out vehicles buried in by the snowplows doing their job. Spent the day installing pleated shades at the hacienda with the granddaughter, who didn't have school & I picked up earlier in the snowy morning.

Wow! You have been busy for sure, Beetle. That is a lot of work. Glad all is well for you and family.
I hope Debbie is fine and safe.

I am just fine, Phyllis, thank you. And yes, let's get that food back out. I am starving!
We got about 6 inches of snow here but I had no trouble getting to work this morning. It was actually quite pretty driving with the snow falling and seeing everything coated in white.
It's pretty for about 10 minutes, until you realize that you'd rather spring was here instead....

After lots of rain yesterday the sun is out and it is very pleasant outside. The cold is coming back tomorrow, but for today it is nice to get a taste of spring.

I just swept off the back porch and smacked the dust off the chair cushions. It is a brisk day but the sun is out. Granpappy is in his shed tinkering about. I can hear the tell-tale sounds of metal clanking around in there. He must have a new project going on.
It sure has been quiet around here lately. I think I will go to the front porch and tidy it up too just in case we get some company.

Granpappy has been in that shed for quite some time making a racket, Phyllis. Any idea what he's doin' in there?

I don't think he's dying Easter eggs.

I know for a fact that he isn't dying eggs. Can you imagine the condition those eggs would be in with all the clamoring going on inside that shed?
