Snow stuff.......
I did like the photos of the frost on the car but I guess it's time to move on........"crickets"........I must have something to say..."more crickets".
It snowed last night...for us the first time all the grass and leaves are covered so it's a good snow in my opinion. The first time for the year our snowplow guy has awakened me plowing in the night. I suspect there is a layer of ice in there somewhere or coming anyway along with more snow today. It's the ice... hiding... lurking... waiting... just when did I start worrying about broken bones!?!
Ice...the end of street is notorious for a sheet of ice, ohhh about 10-15 feet before the stop sign. About 10 -15 feet before a reasonably blind intersection with a busy street. About 15 feet before crossing the intersection into the cemetery across the way - how fortuitous! I don't like anti-lock brakes, they give me the willies BUT I stopped before skidding out into the intersection..ha! I was heading for the sidewalk to the right anyway...o/'o/'o/' slip siding away o/'o/'o/'. All of that was before the major part of the storm last night with more today..we'll see. I'm staying in anyway.
I probably should have gone out to get a Christmas tree before they all got snowed on...
I have put up a few decorations...lights outside of snowflakes and my Hoolahoop wreath ...icicle lights and brass angel candle holders in the bow window in the den. I have my 50s table in the living room...Gurley candles, Santa and a small Caroler, my Elf with the knees curled into his arms (more 60s I think) and a Ray-o-lite plastic Church with lights and music box..just like my mother's ...thank you eBay. Wish I had the Gurley candles I remember from my childhood...my mother had a few of the reindeer set up with Santa..she used to make reins for them using red curling ribbon. I just remembered that - smiles. Maybe I'll get around to taking some photos.
Dec 12th...today would have been my parents somethingth anniversary - um...70th? wwwwwwwwwooooooowwwwwwwww
That's all I've got for now - it's been snowing again the last few hours - looking good.

I remember that intersection...
You should take a picture of your holiday display. I have to live vicariously through everyone's display.
