<font face="Comic Sans MS">Hi folks,<br>
<br>
Well, business as usual has pretty much been suspended in most of the
state for about a week now thanks to the record breaking cold
temperatures and snowfall we received last week, along with a healthy
dose of sleet, etc. which sent everyone scurrying for the grocery store
and to the house to wait out "the blizzard of '11". Conditions were
pretty scary for driving or walking, and still are in spots. I
actually only fell once, and it wasn't nearly as bad as it could've
been, as I fell forward into the snow and was able to catch myself
without making a snow angel or a face imprint. I'd have to bet the
ground hog didn't even think about coming out of his burrow last
Wednesday to see his shadow, and anyone who tried to pull him out into
the cold probably drew back a nub. With temperatures remaining below
freezing until Saturday, thawing did not occur as fast as we could've
wished for, and then it all seemed to happen at once and everything
became a muddy mess within a day. <br>
<br>
My bird feeders were the busiest spots around my house, with all the
little birds out there looking for something to eat that wasn't coated
in ice. I saw at least 9 different species at my feeder and a few more
in the surrounding trees. It was quite a show. I actually saw birds
at my feeder that I had never seen at it before.<br>

Business division instructor, Tia Kelley, is celebrating a birthday
today, by getting to come back to work I guess. Talk about timing!
Have a great day anyway, Tia!<br>
