Sleigh or what? <br /><br />My good news is that David and I are in Northport today, the wind has stopped blowing, and the sun is shining! I think my mood today is too happy and excited to be called Zen-like! I'm in a state of mind that cannot express itself without way too many exclamation marks!!!P. J.

I echo Gerry in that you now need a pair of snowshoes. For peace of mind, if nothing else! <br /><br />Loved the story of your grandpa, too, with you tapping your feet.<br /><br />P.S. Back to the Zen-like contentment...wonder what it would take to maintain that through something like a whole week? (Heck, why not a whole year?) Wonder why we get attached to our uneasiness. On that note, time to go on a hayride... Hope you figure out a good escape route today! And thanks for linking our blogs. :)Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4130421352415377273.post-3857020211377988372009-12-11T11:58:42.886-08:002009-12-11T11:58:42.886-08:00Bad news: We did not succeed in budging our car fr...Bad news: We did not succeed in budging our car from the drift it's stuck in.<br />Good news: We did not keel over dead trying. We still have heat, light and water. We still have food. We've been getting a lot of work done.<br />Time-will-tell news: We have a more elaborate escape plan for tomorrow.P. J.

If the wind ever stops I'll have lots of interesting things to photograph. When.

We're going to gear up, head out and see if we can back the van up from where it's stuck (plow had to go around) and reach the road. This is far from a sure thing, so everyone cross fingers and toes for us, and we shall see what we shall see.P. J.

I feel like the shipwrecked guy on the tiny island with the single palm tree, grabbing at a bottle that's just washed up on the sand and finding a note in it from the outside world! Though he would be throwing the bottle with the note out TO the world, wouldn't he? Never mind. It's still good to get your greeting.P. J.
