1/17/18 GRAY DAY, COLD RIDE

GRAY MORNING

WINTER CASUALTY

COLD WAIT FOR A COLD RIDE
Tuesday, 8:00 AM.  9 degrees, wind WNW, light to moderate at times.  It snowed several inches last night, somewhat wet, sticky stuff that made the roads a bit slippery walking.  It is overcast but the barometer is up, promising clearing skies.
    The big old mulberry tree across the street has bent over from snow load, I can’t tell if the trunk is broken or not.  If the tree survives, the fruit, which I am very  fond of, will be within easier reach. It’s an ill snow storm that brings nobody some  good.
    The old, old wind sled is now in operation, a noisy, cold ride I am told, but very reliable. The new, modern sled, the big dog,  has not been out of the kennel as  yet.
