Light snow - not right now, just cloudy, but later...




You know the stories you read about people who get their walks by kind neighbors who have snow blowers and a few extra minutes? Not in our neighborhood. The last couple years, a guy took his morning walks and pushed his snow blower down our street.  Not this year. And our neighbor with his, stops exactly at the beginning of our driveway. I'm 67 years old and out of shape. But I shoveled our personal sidewalk, because Steven nearly had a heart attack last year. He did the sidewalk in front of the house. He wasn't out of breath and gasping this time though. I'm getting to be a curmudgeon and upset about not getting. I guess that's why I'm not getting. I think if I had ordered the snow blower I wanted to get, I'd do more than just my own walks, at least until my battery wore down. I suppose this is the last of the snow - big ones, that is. We usually get clobbered just once or twice each winter. Groundhog saw his shadow. Maybe not ours - I haven't seen him for a while, but the Blink camera was sent back. I miss it.  Capt. Sir Thomas Moore, the 100 year old World War II veteran who raised tens of millions of dollars for front-line health workers in England during the coronavirus pandemic, died. He walked 100 laps around his garden, hoping to raise 1000£. He completed his final lap two weeks ahead of schedule — an event that was live-streamed by the BBC as the figure reached $15 million. Afterward, donations continued to climb. He raised over 33 million pounds. 10 Downing Street will lower the flag to half mast in tribute to Moore.
