Headed out for the night!

I noticed and animal trail in the snow going in/out from under the “pub” ( a shed)…lo and behold a porcupine!
They are harmless (unless they eat your stuff) until you mess with them!
Thoughts on a porcupine petting zoo?

While going through some photo albums I came across this disturbing document. Evidence of my Mothers criminal past…72 years ago she “kept library books contrary to law”🤣

This will forever be two difficult dates (Jan 11th & 12th).
It was one year ago yesterday my Mom passed away… and today (12th) would have been my Dad’s 101 birthday.
May they be partying in celebration.🎉
I miss them everyday.

A neat picture of the Atlanta high rises poking through a low-level inversion (cool, moist air below warmer air).

It’s this a cool shot or what? Here’s the city of Atlanta, with its tallest skyscrapers sticking above the fog and low clouds. Credit: Kris Moore

This is what happens when one waits a little too long to sail south…it will obviously be here until Spring.
