Great pictures, Mary. We get the dryer snow in January or February, depending on how long it takes Lake Erie to freeze over. Until then, it's heavily saturated with water. All the little feeder creeks and the bigger creeks are running heavy right now. It looks like it might be a green Christmas. They are talking a little snow on Friday, but warmer on Sunday. I have to keep reminding myself of the date, because it sure looks more like late October out than late December.

Shoe, I rode a horse once, took me two weeks to get over it! And I was young then!

I think we'll have broiled beef and cheddar sandwiches for supper with a little fruit salad, bless the Chilean fruit farmers. I really like the idea of local food, but you put some nice Chilean blueberries and raspberries in my local supermarket produce department and I am hard pressed to pass them up this time of year. Add a Jonamac apple and some vanilla yogurt and it makes a lovely little bit of late summer here on the eve of winter.
