Anyway, if you don't live here in Wisconsin, or haven't heard, it snowed here in our neck of the woods. We heard Sunday of last week that the storm was coming our way. Over the river and through the woods...literally, that's how it arrived for us. Anyhoo, as a last-minute decision to beat any mail… Continue reading Anyway It’ll Eventually Melt, Won’t It?

Tidbits of Wisconsin Winter in July

At 5' 3 1/2" I'm slightly taller than our official measurement of snowfall for February 2019 (which, by the way, was taken yesterday, before the snowfall of last night continuing on into this morning!). 50.7 inches is tall in the snow measuring… Continue reading The day I looked out to discover I’m not short after all
