Sunday night, a Winter storm blew our way and by Monday morning, the world was frosted in sparkling white snow and ice. We had a snow day off from school and so I did some shoveling of the front walk early on Monday morning. More sleet soon covered up my labors.
The rhododendron that guards my front steps dropped and shivered under its layer of ice.
The evergreen bushes seemed no better off.
As I write this morning, it’s 11 degrees and the sidewalks and roads are shiny with patches of ice. The cold will linger and more snow is expected on Thursday. Six more weeks until Spring is the mantra that will get us through the next few weeks.
