A belated Merry White Christmas

and the Happiest and let us hope, a more Peaceful New Years to all. Home yesterday for Christmas Dinner with family and friends, old and new. Just cool enough for an all day, all evening fire.

The snow of last weekend still counts as a White Christmas though it’s melting fast. We didn’t finish digging out from a knee deep northeaster till last Monday. Didn’t get down to Sjogin till then and found a cockpit full of snow but otherwise clean decks. “Bailed” her out and had a nice fire below.


Fully Decorated
And there’s the full extent of Holiday Decorations on Sjogin. Before the snow of course. We’re having a light ice season in the pond so far. (Touch wood!)


Snow load
The NE wind kept the decks clean with just the cockpit to “bail”.


Ice beard
Ice beard forming. No serious ice yet. I put the pump back to work after a bit of ice formed in the bilge water. Warmer now.


Happy Hollies
Happy Hollies. The morning after the storm.


Instant Snowman
Ready made Snowman.


Perfect
Christmas Tree and snow, perfect together. I think the Architect of our home had Christmas in mind when he drew this window.
