Peace Like A River


It was a wide river, mistakable for a lake or even an ocean unless you'd been wading and knew its current. Somehow I'd crossed it... Now I saw the stream regrouped below, flowing on through what might've been vineyards, pastures, orhards... It flowed between and alongside the rivers of people; from here it was no more than a silver wire winding toward the city. - Leif Enger, Peace Like A River

Another slow drive this morning, and I was getting in a little late. I took a few minutes to shovel off the driveway. The roads were fine, the sun was out, I don't know what the holdup was. We probably ended up with 7 or 8 inches. At least we're not in Duluth. They got 24 inches in about a 24-hour period. Eek. When that lake effect kicks in, watch out.

The kids helped make heart-shaped cookies last night. Of course they had as much fun just eating the dough and sprinkles.

A bit chilly this morning. Overnight temps should be in the single digits this week. Friday will be the coldest day, highs will only be around 5 degrees.
