Coating

Don't know if my photos will do justice to the coating of ice that is everywhere except the streets, thankfully.

It started late Sunday night with bit of snow but changed over to misting rain that iced on every raised surface.

The streets were well treated but sidewalks were not so schools closed. after first announcing a 2 hour delayed opening.

It looks lovely from here on the 11th floor.

Warming temps this afternoon will bring all the moisture to the ground.

The lake is already having a load of water going over the dam.

But there's more frozen stuff in the forecast ahead.

Women in White

I didn't watch the SOTU in real time, but did check the highlights/low lights this morning.

This was the best scene for me:

Women in White!

The Democratic women most of whom were newly elected in 2018.

I am expecting they will be making important contributions in the years ahead.

Dressed in white to honor the suffragettes who worked so hard to get us the right to vote!

Best Super Bowl Ads

I watch the Super Bowl not just for the game but for the ads.

I think this one was the best.

The "Watch Now" link doesn't work on my blog so click here to see it.

Book Recommendation

I finished reading a wonderful memoir this morning and passed the book on to a friend to read.

Becoming by Michelle Obama.

Well written, inspiring, engrossing, an inside look into the Obamas' life before and during the White House Years!

A must read!
