The day before had been rain. Nothing but rain all the day long. Through the night I could hear the rain begin to freeze and the slishing sound of freezing rain filled my dreams. We woke up to a crystalline world with every branch and leaf coated with a thin layer of clear ice. Then set in the snow. In no time at all the grey glassine world was transformed to white. We spent the morning watching brilliant flakes blow off the roof in eddys and swirls. Then the call came, "No work tomorrow". Ah, Freedom! Let's go play!

Weathering the Storm
Ice. That's what we got today. After all of the wretched (yawn) winter weather we've had here in Middle Tennessee, we get ice. But, no worries, in two days it's supposed to be back in the high 50s and low to mid 60s.
Really, the ice just made a dreary monsoon landscape so much more beautiful! And while the drippiness freezes up the best thing to do is to set the kettle on, choose a favorite tea, pull a chair up to the fire, and relax. You can't do anything outside anyway!
