paths, shovelling, Snow, walking

I am grateful

1. That Special K makes me go out for a walk no matter the weather (yes even in driving rain)

2. That some people were kind enough to shovel the sidewalk in front of their homes so there was a walkway

3. That the snowfall finally ended

3. That now that winter is here in earnest I don’t want it to end.
