It is a lovely frozen day out. Our temperatures are supposed to dip even farther than their current 23 (21 was the lowest last night).
And after all they are just plants and I can get new ones next spring if I bat my eyes at Dirt, maybe.
What I can’t buy at the store is a day or two of watching my “little” girls skate on the big pond like my “big” girls used to all the time.
And by tomorrow if these temps keep it up the ponds will be as frozen at the water in this bucket.
Then the girls will strap on a pair of these and skate all day. I won’t see hide nor hair of them unless I join them. But if it is a good skating day then it is also a good divinity making day. Both of these, good skating and good divinity making days, happen at the same time and both infrequently here in the good ol‘ soggy PNW. So I will make hay while the sun shines.
But I will attempt to get the candy done quickly and head out to the pond because rumor has it that my grandboys are coming out tomorrow.
