Maine knows how to handle its’ snow….it’s places like Virginia where we DO get snow but not enough of it and not as frequent as some places to allow us to know how to deal with it easily. SO we flounder around a lot when we get a sizeable snow.

It definitely makes a difference if you live in a place where they plow the roads. The plow that goes by our house goes bumpity, bumpity, bumpity we can hear it coming. Sometimes it wakes mom up if she is not in a deep sleep.

Hello Kitty Lovers 15 hours, 16 minutes agoChip had suggested a while back that I put racing stripes and a horn on my wagon. I’ve got a vintage taxi horn, which makes a nice Irish Coffee holder, but I’m not quite sure I’m up for racing stripes!! What do you think?
-
I think it’s purrfect as it is but if you want some racing stripes I;ll help you put them on!

I kind of think this is a classic wagon, so I don’t want to tamper with it too much! I’m impressed that the horn kept the glass full and nothing spilled!

Usually around a hundred during the day and eighties at night!

How’s your wildlife, Andy? Do the creatures still come into your yard?

There has not been too much wildlife activity lately. All of the animals have been pretty much hunkering down. We had deer tracks in the snow going over to our hedge. They love to munch on our hedge.
