Back in Maine after a week in San Diego, I thought I would celebrate with a little snow and ice. We did get some melting while I was away, but this is the Mousam River just before I left…frozen and snow covered. We still have feet of “white ice” in the backyard…highly reflective and highly resistant to melting. So it goes. We could easily get another foot of fresh snow before spring is ready to lay claim to the landscape for good.
