Winter Storm

Yesterday our first winter storm arrived.  It was right at the freezing mark all day and last night and  continuing today.  We had rain and freezing rain off and on all day, all night, and today.

Fortunately it was mostly rain and not so much freezing rain so ice did not accumulate too thickly on the trees and power lines.  The lights have stayed on....... so far.

I wish all the seed catalogs that come out at this time of year had already arrived.  Today is a good day to sit by the fireplace or stove, and plan the garden for the spring.
