The snow showers moved in again today, which has me thinking of summer white clouds and white flower blooms, even little white clover blossoms in the lawn.

The sunlight this morning highlighted the sparkles from the fluffy flakes from the last snowfall. But my squirrels have been messing up the shiny snowflakes as they stomp down trails from the trees to my bird feeders.

The chickadees seemed to enjoy the sunshine today as much as I did, but the chickadees always seem to have a cheery song no matter what the weather is. The only time they don’t sound happy is when I haven’t filled the bird feeder or I am taking too long to fill it.

The clouds today dropped some more of those white flakes in cold weather which has me remembering of a warmer form of water falling in a colorful setting.

After the snow stopped falling, the breeze picked up and blew the snow off the trees to make it look like the snow was falling from the skies again. Stronger winds caused blowing and drifting, including a drift across my driveway that I have to shovel again.

I don’t think this old tow truck will be pulling anyone out of the ditch during this snow storm as it appears its working days are over as I’m not even sure the red light on top works anymore plus the snow would blow right through the cab.
No Towing Anymore

It will be a few months before the sight of a freighter vessel is seen leaving port on Lake Superior. The last two ships arrived in Superior port this morning and made their way through the ice to the docks. Although most of Lake Superior’s water is open, the ports have become iced over and with the Soo Locks closing yesterday, the vessels are stuck somewhere on Lake Superior until late March when the locks open again for freighter traffic.

The cats may have more fun playing in the snow than mine ‘playing’ which is shoveling and blowing that cold white stuff.

A couple of light snowfalls in the last two days have coated the trees again with a white dusting of snow and it sounds like they will get additional layers of that white stuff in the coming days.

Snow is falling again tonight as well as last night which means more shoveling. Raking leaves in the fall doesn’t take as many days in addition to warmer temperatures to do the work without freezing fingers. But for now it will be snow shoveling and then lawn mowing before the task of raking leaves comes again.
Leaves Not Raked
