Y'all stay safe and warm. Been watching Jesse's Facebook page all day. Her
deer, Will wants in the house! LOL! My family in IL was gearing up for the
weather too. Need to call them. It's just humid and chilly here, and by
chilly I mean 55 degrees. So, I DO NOT envy all of you snow bound bunnies!

I love watching the birds.  They are soooo happy to have food and water.  I 
think the water is almost more important than the food.
The sun has come out but the wind is still terrible.  We have some drifts 
around 4' deep.  I don't know when it will thaw.
