snow fun

Our neighbors were out enjoying the snow this morning.

Neighbors of all ages were outside, chatting, visiting and sledding down our street, which is very steep.

It’s interesting that the two wildest and craziest guys, Shehzad and Jason, are both doctors.

Shehzad was particularly enthusiastic

Here you see him rounding a curve a bit behind two girls.

Here you see that he caught up with them.

Huma wanted to ride down sitting on Shehzads back, but he prefered to send her by herself. She loved it.

Jason was out with his kids.

He forgot to bring his dog, Winston, to tow their sled.

Shehzad gave Zane a ride on his back.

Shehzad made a video of this!!

Snow on metal roofs

We learned that our new metal roof doesn’t act like our old asphalt tile roof. Snow slides down and off of a metal roof! I wish I had a video of the snow letting loose, shaking the house and making a terrible noise.

A little later, shortly before the snow slid off the roof in spectacular fashion:

I’m glad I already got Valentine flowers for Iris

I took a walk along Morgan Creek

I love the creek in back of our house.

My new boots do seem to be waterproof!

I still miss Rio and Djamila.

People were still out on Friday morning

After a stunning star-filled night with a bright moon shining on the snow, we had a beautiful Tarheel-blue sky today.

Our screen porch had a good view

Neighbors were still sledding down Bartram
