measurement


After digging out a sidewalk to lead to the cars. I took a measurement this afternoon. So before the nightfall of 5 pm and as the orange skies came upon us. Our final measurement was a incredible 29 inches accumulated from yesterday 10 am Friday, to 5 pm Saturday evening.

blizzard


We are held up at home after a snowy blizzard evening last night that lasted throughout the morning and quieted down finally this afternoon. Quite a beautiful picture of the neighborhood and the cars buried in the snow this morning around 10:30 am.

morning tea

As I was enjoying my Teavana Tea, my selection white tea "To Life". What a tasty tea to enjoy a nice morning. I found it in a quaint store in the Potomac area. The store named Teavana Tea had large loose tea leaf glass vats to choose from. The assistants opened the To Life container and a wonderful wiff and aroma surprised me. The freshness brought a smile.
