Six plus inches of snow and ice with cancellations!


Paula's flight from Chicago was canceled due to the snow storm. She is going to try again Sunday but we have snow in the forecast for Sunday also. She's going to have to look on the bright side of having more time to spend with the Grand kids. They are thrilled. If this weather keeps up she may be spending Christmas in Illinois.

The storm started off with freezing rain followed by 6 or more inches of fluffy snow. It isn't good packing snow. I couldn't even make a snow ball. Currently it is back to freezing rain. I took the boys for a walk and had a difficult time because it was so icy under the snow. We followed the track of one lonely snow mobile. That is the only evidence of anyone in the area. I won't be driving until they plow and cinder the road. Walking is hazardous enough.

Scooter is thoroughly enjoying the weather. He blends in so well I have to really look for him when he gets ahead of me. Leo and Thor were relieved to get back home by the fireplace. Their legs are shorter than Scooters which makes it harder to trudge through the snow. Also they don't have a warm coat like Scooter.

It looks like we are going to have a white Christmas in the Leetonia area this year. It's hard to believe it's just around the corner. Where did the year go? We are focusing on a healthy, safe and abundant year for 2009 and wishing the same for all of you. Leetonia Lee logging out.
