Weather outside is Snowy--a Treat for Wet Washington




The temperature is a brisk 24 degrees F. The breeze out of the east just lifting the stars and stripes gently. The sun is shining and birds are enjoying the seeds left in the feeding stations protected by our gazebo. The suet is hanging on the cherry tree next to the house for those birds who crave a little fat.

Fire is going in the fireplace to augment the electric heat. The fireplace heater is wood burning and is a closed box with fan for more efficiency. I need to water the houseplants today.

The Christmas tree, a Nobel fir, gets special water that keeps the leaves green and the needles fresh.

The icicles are beautiful! Looks like you are snowed in as much as we are!
