Snowy Sunday Morning

On day four of our winter wonderland, the giant redwood has bowed under her heavy coat.IMG_1160

Yesterday afternoon MM and I had  an amazing trip to and from PDX to collect Katherine in heavy snowfall.  We fortified ourselves with a stop off at Burgerville on the way home.

Back at 1880, this scene followed:

Soon, we were entertained by a huge flock of robins as they stripped the pyracantha of all its berries in a drunken frenzy.

Following soup in the snug, we discovered that we were running short on sweets, so our walking-wounded, Mary-Margaret and Kobe ventured a walk across the street for treats from the corner donut shop.  It is amazing how well they are both doing.

And this morning, all services at St. P’s have been cancelled.  Who ever heard of such a thing?  Guess we may just be forced to sit in front of this all morning.

  1. I hope you are not sending all that snow our way. We’ve had enough already! It was -18 degrees several nights last week, and we are definitely ready for Spring.

    • It is a rare treat and especially fun since Mary-Margaret is here from Maui and Katherine is here from San Francisco where they never, ever get to play in the snow. Hope your new house is cozy and warm.
