Ice and Snow
Yesterday we woke to ice and snow. I like the snow but not the ice. I talked to my friend Doug and they did not have any electricity and he was building a fire. I invited them over just in case.

I don’t think we had as much ice as other areas around Kingsport. here a few pictures.

The green blooming trees are now cold and ice covered. Remember, there’s life underneath that ice.

That dogwood by the patio has just enough ice to make it twinkle. IMG_0399

My Birthday and Snow
We had planned to go our and celebrate my 72nd  birthday last night, but the weather was so bad we elected to bring in food and celebrate at home. Below are a few pictures that made my birthday special…

Joke of the Day

Two Blondes With Hammers...
Lynn and Judy were doing some carpenter work on a Habitat for Humanity House. Lynn was nailing down house siding, would reach into her nail pouch, pull out a nail and either toss it over her shoulder or nail it in.

Judy, figuring this was worth looking into, asked, 'Why are you throwing those nails away? Lynn explained, 'When I pull a nail out of my pouch, about half of them have the head on the wrong end and I throw them away.

Judy got completely upset and yelled,'You moron! Those nails aren't defective! They're for the other side of the house!'
