HAPPY ST. PATRICK'S DAY

GOOGLE seems to do it 'right' on select holidays.  This graphic is on their home page today.

And this photo is of the gal who I just don't think we're going to see this year.  While we did have snow over night (about 4" in Mi Wuk), it sounds as if there's not much more predicted.  Hence, those big plows probably won't be appearing on a street near your home or cabin anytime soon.


This was taken as the gal snow plow driver was headed up Susu Court last March.   I haven't seen the big plows out once this year.  Sad.

A little calendar tidbit:  Last year at this time:
March 14:  Drizzle, temp range 40-52
