Blogging canceled because of snow and old age

I was standing at the mouth of our driveway, and with the wind blowing at 20 miles an hour it cut trough my parka and thermals with ease. It made me think of a National Geographic special I had just watched showing a few stalks of grass being blown by the harsh arctic winds as that wind raked the Alaskan wilderness.

There were times when I would shovel the snow from my doorway to the junction of the Elliott highway and our driveway but that was years ago and I was in much better shape. Now I am barely able to shovel for more than a couple minutes before I have to stop…. and thus the reason for this non-posting.

I know the amount of snow we received does not compare to Boston or Buffalo but since Tuesday when it first started to snow I have been outside shoveling every day just trying to keep up with those ‘snow showers’. Then on Saturday it finally decided to stop with any more heavy accumulation and I have been trying to clear my truck and drive since then. I was planning on a trip to Fairbanks on Tuesday but I still have some work to finish so it will be yet another couple days before I have time to sit , ponder and write about our world and its many twists and turns.

So with Gods grace
I will finish what needs to be done
make my journey to town
then hopefully once again write a posting
that you find worthy of your time.
