While thinking of all our service men and women, let’s also take a moment to think about those who served this country with honor, both during their military service and after.

We recently lost our own JRandomFreeper. Johnny, you will be missed.

Thanks very much, Kathy!

The electricity has stayed on up to now, and the snow and wind has picked up over the last several hours. We're at about 30" - hard to get an accurate measure because of high winds and drifting snow. John Man has done a good job on the shoveling.

"TAKE UP THY CROSS
AND FOLLOW ME"



"I Vow To Thee My Country"
Choir Of King's College, Cambridge
(Click)

"I VOW TO THEE, my country, all earthly things above,
Entire and whole and perfect, the service of my love;
The love that asks no question, the love that stands the test,
That lays upon the altar the dearest and the best;
The love that never falters, the love that pays the price,
The love that makes undaunted the final sacrifice.

And there's another country, I've heard of long ago,
Most dear to them that love her, most great to them that know;
We may not count her armies, we may not see her King;
Her fortress is a faithful heart, her pride is suffering;
And soul by soul and silently her shining bounds increase,
And her ways are ways of gentleness, and all her paths are peace."

30 inches??!!! OUCH!! My lil straw farm hat’s off to John Man if he’s been able to keep up with that kind of snow.

That storm just doesn’t seem to want to move off, does it?

Glad to see your sister made it home safely.
It’s probably going to take a few days to recuperate. LOL! That was a busy 10 days.

Sometimes "fear" is a good thing!

Good girl! Glad you retreated to safety. Hope your sister has provisions for being stuck.

She has the two-year-old twin grandsons with her too. So, it’s sleeping bags for four!

I'm following the NWS Enhanced Data Display website, which has reported depths from NWS employees and trained spotters. A spotter in Fairland - about 5 miles southwest of us - reported 29.5" at 5:05 this afternoon. Another spotter in Savage - about 5 miles northeast of us, reported 21" at 7:00 p.m. My son went out into the front yard late this afternoon and sank a yardstick into the snow up to 31". I don't know how accurate that reading was, but we have more snow this evening that at any time I can recall since my youth - 1966, to be exact.
