Perhaps the reason I don't enjoy snow. I was born in NJ during the blizzard of Dec 1947. Mom and I couldn't get home from the hospital for days.

I don't know if I ever told you that the neighbor's cat, Casey, has been coming here every day for 10 years to visit me. Our cat had just passed away, so we were delighted to have him visit. He's been boarding here this past week while they are out of town. He's a sweet boy!

It was a lovely surprise. Here you can clearly see the original white flowers and the one that decided it needed more color!

The picture on the left is my maternal grandparents on their wedding day early 1900s. The one on the right is the same man, my grandfather, after nearly 40 years working in the PA coal mines. A cousin did a drawing of him. He died in his early 60s of black lung just after the portrait was done.
