Windy

        A 30 mph wind, mostly north, a little west, has whipped up whitecaps on the little pond across the road from The Little House. Don't remember seeing that before. Leaving the OFH in the warmth Monday I neglected to bring my top coat. There is a house full of cold weather clothes but not Sunday go-to-meeting types. So, a bit of shivering between inside and car, etc. Not fatal of course but would have been mighty miserable in the case of car trouble. Car trouble is very infrequent these days with modern autos. My father always advocating leaving early in case of a flat tire. He began driving in 1914 when flats were frequent. Now "leave early in case of traffic jams" but they're not an issue here on the prairie. 

   Snowbanks are still visible where they were deep by trees with a few still in road ditches. Yesterday's snow didn't amount to much and quickly disappeared. Those snowbanks are a reminder of the winter  that was. Still haven't found anyone who'd admit to enjoying the winter. 😄

   Life is good on the prairie.

Takk for alt,

Al
