We had a gentle reminder yesterday that it’s still winter. A fine-flaked snowstorm began yesterday morning and slogged on at a slow pace into the night. We got about two to three inches of new carpeting eventually.
The local lanes took a long time to get white coverings and the bright colors at various places stood out.
At Naskeag Harbor, the visibility through the fine snow was low and the temperature was just at freezing. Yet, it wasn’t too cool to keep our courageous neighbor, Sarah Havener Brown, from taking her daily therapeutic dip in the Harbor waters while her loyal dog, Esme, stood watch.
This morning’s first light, seen below, revealed cold (18° F, wind chill 07°), but peaceful, views. The morning also brought our faithful snow-plower, Jerry Gray.
