Day 7 - 17 -- White Weather

What a weather day this has been!  We got some snow overnight and as the day wore on the winds picked up. This resulted in blowing snow -- new and what was already on the ground. There were moments of whiteout conditions where we couldn't see the houses across the street. Luckily, the temperatures were not too cold. I headed out to supper with a friend. The restaurant was quite lively but that could be explained by the fact that it is a Friday evening. We had a great meal and wonderful conversation. I found things that were soft enough to meet the level of chewing I am capable of at present. Had a fantastic spicy tuna tartar and tuna carpaccio. Yum! The main meal involved a great shellfish pasta dish that was scrumptious.

Walking home brought me face into the wind with mist and tiny frozen pellets. The wind roared into the later evening. The world was whiter that it had been. There will be oodles to move tomorrow, but temperatures will drop a bit so the snow should remain light and fluffy and very easy to move. Now the end of the drive may be another story, but we will see. Total snowfall levels have been downgraded, so it should be easier to get out and about tomorrow.

Looking at the white world from sky to ground outside the window brought an older song to mind. Love the keyboards in this one. Enjoy!
