March 23 still snowing
So other than I get a check from a company here, is there a reason I live in Wisconsin? Spring has started, I guess we are not to April showers yet. But we did have some showers starting yesterday, sleet, snow, hail. Today has been very windy and the temp now says 23 degrees as it continues to drop. I tried to clean the drive, since it is not going to get above freezing for the next week it won’t melt soon. And that slush at the bottom will freeze into a real mess. But plowing a gravel driveway with slush on it is no fun. I set the plow up to try and not dig into it. I spent part of the last week trying to distribute gravel that was pushed off the drive over the winter, back on the drive. Oh well. Looking at the pictures can you imagine most of the snow was gone from the drive a couple of days ago?
Even the turkeys kept coming around today trying to find the gravel. I stayed home today. My boss said I can work from home some days, since I won’t get a raise he can let me save some gas money, which is good of him. And today was a good day not to bother trying to drive in. And I worked more hours today than usual!
So I just did a cleaning, and brought enough wood in for the night. This weekend Chris and I will spend some time together, she leaves for Albuquerque Monday morning. Marie has surgery on Friday, we are praying for an easy successful surgery. And she will be home and ready to travel soon.
You just live in the wrong part of WI. All we have had is rain.
I sure hope everything goes well with Marie through this next surgery. That poor girl has really had a lot to contend with.
Tell Chris to keep me informed. I talked with Marie on her birthday and she did sound in good spirits.
Dick and I wll kep the prayers coming.
Tell Chris safe travels and hope Marie’s surgery goes well.
What’s all that white stuff???? The only thing I can conclude from the posted photos is that turkeys are the only things crazy enough to live that far north.
