All alone? Repeat customers? New and interesting folks?
Very nippy...mall flag was flying straight out. Fortunately, it’s a pretty short walk from my car into the building. Unfortunately, my feet are still cold. My slippers are just not doing the trick.
But...2 mornings ago I had to get binoculars to try to see why the snow was so disturbed on the bank. Guess what? Lots of duck prints. About 20 have come the last 2 evenings. I hope the hawk is still gone.

I wasn’t there alone. Freddy and James were there but Freddy doesn’t do tours. James does when he’s up to it (has a bad heart) but he wasn’t up to it yesterday. They sat in the front room and greeted folks who came in. I got one tour in, then “floated” the rest of the day, checking with people to see if they had questions and such.
There were several working today and we all stayed on the go. A couple of repeaters showed up with friends who were visiting from out of town. That happens quite a bit.
I guess my favorite tour today was with three couples who showed up on their motorcycles. Two of the guys were veterans. The wives got bored fairly quickly and went back outside but the guys had a great time going through and seeing all of our cool artifacts. They really enjoyed the prototypes.
It sounds like we had about the same kind of wind. The military flags we place out by the highway and our big American flag were all whipping. Fortunately, we aren’t nearly as cold as y’all are. Short distance or not, that had to be a miserable walk to the office, then back to your car. Do you have a large pot your feet will fit into? If so, put some hot water in it and put your feet in there to warm them up. That’s what I do when my tootsies get cold and won’t thaw out.
YAY! I was wondering if the ducks were coming back yet. Glad they are and I’m right there with you in hoping that dratted hawk has moved on to other territory.
