snow day!!

so it snowed allllllllll day today - maybe a bit of freezing rain too.  We had planned to pop in town for some groceries, but decided to wait for tomorrow when the weather has improved.  It's odd that, although we can (and sometimes do) shop anytime or any day, somehow we manage to wind up in the stores on Saturday afternoon - the busiest time.  duh!!!

Well there may not be any sign of Spring soon, but there are signs that NASCAR is gearing up for the season.  Got an email today from Bill that said - "26 days to go" and Rick's brother emailed from Florida that he purchased tickets for the Gatorade Duals!  All pointing to cars going round and round - FAST in a few short weeks. 

A quick mention that our pellet stove is still our primary source of heat this winter and we're quite comfortable - only on the coldest nights have we turned the heaters on.

We've been picking up some great shows lately on VH1 Classic - last night was an interesting special with The Edge, Jimmy Page and Jack White called "it might get loud"  -  good title!   Tonite is a documentary on The Who - that we're looking forward to watching.   When I was growing up listening to these bands (The Who, Zepplin, Cream etc.) it was all about the music - the sound -because other than album covers and the occasional performance on Ed Sullivan show, we had little visual idea of the musicians - so I find it interesting to watch these old videos and recordings of bands performing from the '60's and '70's.  Besides they were really good!!!

We've been getting lots and lots of deer lately and lots of birds at the feeders.  Buddy hangs out under the feeders as long as he can stand the cold, but he hasn't caught anything yet! (good thing)
