chicken coop in snow

 These pictures are from yesterday morning. Most of the snow was gone by noon. And as you can see, the roads were clear from the beginning.

Ray admires the view

Yesterday morning, I dropped Ray off on campus and went to Mama's Boy for brunch, where a couple students were meeting with Nancy S. about fund-raising ideas for the Land Trust. I forgot I was going to be eating there, so had already had breakfast. I just ordered hot chocolate and a biscuit--both huge and delicious. After that meeting, we went to the Land Trust office and talked for a bit.

Then I left to meet Lori B., the architect, for lunch. More eating--I just had a cup of soup. It was quite fun, although I don't know that anything will come of it. She is very nice and we got along well. She is expecting her first child in July. She told me a little about some of her projects and that she is taking exams to be a licensed architect this spring. She has to in order to bid on commercial work, which she hopes will be more lucrative than the residences she's been doing since moving here from Connecticut seven years ago.

I went back to the Land Trust and studied some software they are starting to use for their contacts, etc. Sales Force, I believe it is called, but customers can be donors and volunteers, I think. Worked till 5, went to get Ray, went home and made supper. Delicious! Again, fell asleep watching TV early, but slept well until after 5, so that's fine.
