Winter came back !

Up early, cold night, 9 degrees outside, Coffee Hot and House Warm,  Green Grass outside,  We left at 10AM for Church, set up for a "Moravian Lovefeast" for Communion today.
.
My Honey made a sweetened coffee and a small roll we served to the Congregation for Communion, following the Blessing of the Elements while enjoying their drink and roll folks chatted, drank coffee and ate their roll,  went over rather well I think !
.
After Church we headed Home, a 20 minute ride and it started Snowing rather hard, thankfully no wind, we were surprised as a 'Fisher" ran out into the road in front of us and an oncoming car, he made it across the road, Fishers are not seen often, their Hide to a trapper is worth from 50 to 70 dollars as now the Fur Market is way down at record level lows and not many Trappers now !
.
.
This is a Fisher, a member of the Weasel Family, they are mean and nasty, not well like by Chicken Farmers or Mink Farms as they can destroy more than they can eat!  I saw one my Father trapped back in the early 60's that was skinned out, Beautiful long haired, soft to the touch.
.
It is still snowing out at 6PM, we hired our Driveway and Walkway sno blowed and shoveled by a young Contractor for the winter, I am not supposed to shovel so the young man we have snowblows our place and is very reasonable as we pay him each time he sno blows, some people pay by the season.
.

.
I sit here in my Recliner and can see down the road while I watch a live feed on the Computer from Key West and Key Largo Beaches!  Something to keep my mind off the Snow !!LoL !!
.
.
My Honey and I went outside and she is standing in front of the Bird Feeder but you can see next to her the Lighted Christmas Tree in the back lawn.
.
.
I took my Mask off long enough to take this picture outside tonight after dinner as we checked the "Snow Gauge"  and we got 5 inches of snow this afternoon !

Don't Forget, Remember our Vets !

Enjoyed the entry and the lesson on the 'Fisher', never heard of one. I was trying to ID the dude when I first saw the picture. I wondered about your drives and sidewalks knowing you were not supposed to be out in the elements. I liked the contrast of the TV and view outside.
BUT the soldiers picture did bring a tear. THANKS
Love you guys stay warm
