Winter Blues
03/10/2008
I have added a picture I took this morning of the front of my house to the images section here on 8hop. I think this will provide some background to my poem called Winter Blues. Over the last four days we have received over 80 cm (2.7 feet) of snow. It has been a very harsh winter here. I am hoping that spring doesn't decide to give us a pass.
