Today was mostly cloudy and very cold, the high being 19 degrees and the low being 8. Our area received a few snow flurries this afternoon, but the winter storm has gone to our south, sparing us the slippery roads. The sub-freezing temperatures have already re-frozen much of what had thawed over the past couple of days.

Sherry and Geo were both here today, continuing their ongoing projects. Paul Vencil, our trustworthy plumber, was on site to replace the broken faucet in the studio.
While Sherry was here, she noticed an owl perched under the roof of the south portico where repairs have begun and the facing boards have been removed. Based on her description and a picture she took, her son, Jeremy, identified the visitor as a screech owl. I was hoping to see him (or her), but when I went over with Stephen later this afternoon, the little owl was gone. Many thanks to Sherry for sharing her photo with us!
