It is a weirdly warm day in mid coast Maine - 44 degrees - after an inch or so of snow, followed by sleet and sort of misty rain, melted to slush and now to big puddles of water and mud (likely to freeze into slick ice sheets over night tonight). I have acquaintances complaining about the lack of snow this fall-winter. I don't mind snow, but can't say I'm pining for it. What I don't like is wild swings between icy cold temps and spring-like weather with rain/sleet. Which always leads to ice, which is the downfall (pun intended) of we the "elderly."
Anyway, this is just a brief post to say Welcome to 2019, when my (only relevant) new year's resolution is to try to post more often.
I'll start with this photo from this morning, continuing my on-going New Year's tradition of taking a photo of Ella and me every January 1.
May the year ahead be better than the year behind - a low bar indeed. Now I'm off to cook black-eyed pea stew, collard greens, rice and corn bread. Yum.
Peace.
