Winter Snowfall
It snowed a few inches last week, then yesterday it warmed up to 6 degrees Celsius with lot of rain. So all the snow melted.
This morning there was a light snowfall. Just enough to rest lightly on the branches in the garden. I makes the world seem like a fairyland.
This first picture shows (l-r): a dwarf Alberta Spruce, a Blue Fescue grass, and a dwarf Hemlock.
The second photo shows the painted tree (see the post of The August Garden)
As we drove to work, it seemed that the snow on the bigger trees along the road had started to come off. So it seemed that the snowiness was best at home.
Also saw a flock of crows in the field just over the hill. There were probably 40 crows that dispersed as we drove by. What was that all about? Don't think I've ever seen that many crows in one spot all at once.

Wayback Machine
While cleaning out some books from a bookshelf, this fell out of the books. Appears to be a pay slip from 1974 at the greenhouse at Andrews University. Rosemary worked there when she went back to finish off her B.Sc. in Nursing. The very generous sum of $1.60 per hour.
On a slightly different subject- To find what old webpages may have looked like in the past, you can use the Internet Archive Wayback Machine to go "wayback." Actually, it only goes back to 1996.
