We've still got snow on the ground, Pete, although it's not going to be around much longer. Tomorrow it's going to hit 60 degrees and rain.

Funny thing happened three or four days ago. I don't know if it's a universal pastime wherever there's snow, but when we were kids, we'd lie in the snow on our backs, raise our arms above our haed and back and spread our legs wide. When we got up, we'd made a snow angel. We live on the highest point of our street, Hillcrest, and that says it all. We get some might strong winds here. Anchoring our lighted angel on the front lawn is always a challenge, because it gets blown over all the time. I bought a new angel this year because our old one looks like it's been run over by a truck. Shortly after we had our ten inches of snowfall, I guess our angel couldn't resist the temptation. She toplled over on her back and when I went out and helped her up, I had to laugh. She'd made a snow angel with her wings. Sparky the snow angel. Of course, there is always the possibility that the wind blew her over...
