17:47 Tomorrow

It isn’t quite winter yet. That begins tomorrow at 17:47 UTC. (That’s 5:47 PM in London.)

However, it would appear Winter decided to send a calling card prior to arriving. I look out the second story window of my office down onto the driveway where my car should be parked and see a pile of snow with an antennae protruding from it like a sapling freshly broken from the soil.

To avoid going out to clear the two or so feet of snow atop the car, I thought it would be a good time to make a long neglected blog entry.

If you look out of the other side of the house you can see the relatively useless swimming pool. To this day, I do not understand the logic of having a swimming pool in northern New England.&; They cost a fortune to run and are good for three months, max.

April Sure Looks Like March

You won't see anything resemling this cactus flower anywhere in the wild around here.

The good news we missed the April Fools Blizzard again. I still kept the shovels and salt out on the front porch until April second.

To get over the Winter Blues I absolutely guarantee you will be emotionally moved by the music conducted by Gustavo Dudamel http://tr.im/GDudamel for TED. Tingles the spine.
