It's a real classic.<br />We woke up to a small lake in our backyard on Christmas day. That's what a high water table and oodles of rain will do here. (We're able to pump now after engineering we did a few years back...but a night of freezing weather gave us a skating rink for variety.) This isn't terribly unusual weather here but it seems like we're the exception this year.Kayhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02971991029290518107noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8558559381295017448.post-36639081477731552152015-12-22T11:04:49.628-05:002015-12-22T11:04:49.628-05:00The second one suits me nicely.The second one suits me nicely.William Kendallhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00331324250821836822noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8558559381295017448.post-91793307099841938062015-12-22T11:04:28.212-05:002015-12-22T11:04:28.212-05:00This winter is definitely one for the books...way ...This winter is definitely one for the books...way too temperate.Katehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09223040482420514208noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8558559381295017448.post-10182104636688737892015-12-21T18:09:21.316-05:002015-12-21T18:09:21.316-05:00There`s a little library like that a few streets a...There`s a little library like that a few streets away from me, such a great idea!Shammickitehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11969803866899076638noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8558559381295017448.post-54158600976643795802015-12-21T18:01:41.122-05:002015-12-21T18:01:41.122-05:00It is warm here too!
