The thaw ...

... has come to an end! It's snowed overnight and now, where it had been clear, is covered with a fresh 4 inches or so! The little rough snow mountains dotted around from the clearances are now smoothing out again with the fresh fall.  Schools, which had reopened on Monday, have closed again which means my youngest grand-daughter hasn't got her open morning at 'big' school as planned :0( The already very restricted bus service to the village has been stopped completely  (again!) and the buses that service the area that Dad lives in now are also not running (there's not many that were in the city anyway) because the roads are too dangerous. Guess the postal delivery won't happen again for a few days either ....

I'm not hopeful of getting to the Glitterpot tomorrow anymore, although yesterday it looked possible ... but no longer! The forecast is for it to move away but not until early afternoon. Even if temperatures rise to start the thaw again I don't think it's gonna be quick enough - *LOL* Oh well, looks like a few phone calls to be made .....


Thanks for dropping by .....
