SNOW Again

SNOW, are you getting tired of that word? I sure am! We got a skiff of snow last night AGAIN. My poor pear blossoms are covered in snow this morning and since the low last night was 19, they will probably be gone as soon as the sun hits them, unless the snow insulated them. At least we don't have the wind this morning. John said one of the guys at work had recorded gusts of 80 mph! I believe it, it was screaming here. The wind tore the tarp cover from our parking shed yesterday and stuff is blown all over the yard. John is out gathering it all up. We need bungies on everything that's outside to anchor it to the ground. At least the house and garage are still standing, it could have been much worse!

This afternoon we went to Show Low so John could pick up his "flipper" It's like a false tooth that he will wear to keep the spacing the same until they put in the implant. It was spitting snow at us for a while, not much and snowed off and on most of the afternoon. It was a cold and wintery day. While we were there we checked several stores looking for a desk. We want one to go in the barn this summer. Neither one of us like the modern looking ones and we ended up picking up this old, old, teacher looking desk that we liked and the best part is it was only $40! The top is trashed and so we are going to replace it with new wood, but the rest will look good after some cleanup and a bit of repair work.
