At last.. snow.. we spent the day watching the snow come down.. not heavily.. but by about 10PM we must have 4-5 inches. It’s only the first or maybe second real snowfall this winter.. that’s pretty darn strange. We knew soemthing was up when we realized we didn’t even have a snow brush in the new Subaru.. because we’ve never needed it !
It was pretty warm though.. i did catch some birds like this cardinal and a blue jay hanging round the feeder. ..they’re winter birds, but we’re already seeing robins !
We managed to get outside for a hike.. I was hoping to use snowshoes.. but the snow was only about 2 inches deep at that point.. still.. it was so nice getting outside. We hiked up to where we’d decorated the xmas tree outside… We wanted to find itso we could collect the strings we’d used to hang the bagels and bread
After the hike I ended up sleeping on te couch for an hour or so.. I didn’t realize just how tired I was.. I woke up eager to work on soemthing. My buddy John came over and we worked on a musical project we’re collaborating on.. made some really good progress today.. It’s really fun working with him..
Around 6L30 Jen and Tim came buy and picked us up. A freind of Jen’s was playing in a makeshift folks club in Shelboure called the Silo Sessions at the ‘Bread and Butter Farm” . What a treat !! The farm served fresh home made bread, cheese and apples.. and we got to watch two great cats. The first was Jen’s freind Maryese Smith.. great, rgeat songwriter with a powerful voice. (Here she is with her dad)
Then we got to watch a fantastic performance by Seth Glier and freind and backup guitar play Ryan M. These guys were nominated for a Grammy this year. They had amazing music in them.. . I’m sure we’ll be hearing more of his stuff . Check it out !
Hmm…. not much else happened today.. Oh.. Jim P. found these three great pictures of Sam somewhere.. I love seeing Sam in the air.. Diane and I were wondering alound when we’ll have seen all the pictures of Sam that there are… I have to say I hope they never stop……
OK.. time for sleep..
