Safe and Secure

      So the temps today reached into the 50s, and after the February we've had this was an event as miraculous and unexpected as me someday waking up 20 pounds lighter (never gonna happen). I actually rode around with my car window open and unzipped my jacket to an inch below my chin! 


     Sure, it's going to be cooler tomorrow and I think I heard mention of snow flurries on the weekend, but we'll take what we can get. 
   
    In my last post I mentioned our new burglar repellant - aka the 4 to 5 feet of concrete snow blocking our back doors. 
    Well, today we're that much safer. 
    A month and a half of snow like this


    results in a driveway like this. 
    Thanks to the ongoing spring thaw, we've now added a moat to our security system.

    Good grief at the snow. A moat! Somebody would have to want in mighty bad to go through all that! :)

    I would not survive one winter up there. Just looking at all that snow makes me want to bury myself under blankets in the bed.

    Silver linings?
    Give me grey skies and gloomy mists and relatively warmer temperatures any day, although it’s easier to be burgled round here.
