A snowy day...
...in Canton town
It had me up...

How long, I wondered, could this thing last?

Hello, world! This blog began on September 28, 2007, and so far nobody has come looking for me

On my honor, I will do my best not to bore you. All comments are welcome
as long as your discourse is civil and your language is not blue.
Happy reading, and come back often!
And whether my cup is half full or half empty, fill my cup, Lord.

ReplyDeleteYou forgot to take a picture of the snow angel you made while you were out sledding and gathering up clean snow for your snow ice cream treat with Mrs RWP! Tsk, tsk. Oh, well, you can take one tomorrow when you get your inner tube out and take on a few hills!
ReplyDeleteSpeaking as an unbiased, neutral and fair-minded international observer I find it surprising that those confederate heroes have not been dynamited from the face of Stone Mountain. More prosaically, your neighbourhood looks lovely in the snow. More like Switzerland than The Peach State.
