| There was plenty of snow to begin the week. By Monday afternoon, it had begun disappearing as spring reared its beautiful head. |
30 degrees/clear skies/breezy
Pentoga Road
I'm up bright and early this morning as I caught word that Hambone was going to stop in for a visit today. Sargie's off and after finding out that Macrea had to work in Ironwood, Grandma Sargie and Daddy agreed that Grady would be dropped off this morning and Macrea could pick him up on his way home tonight.

| Hambone made the local paper along with the rest of his class last Friday. Back row, first astronaut on the left. |
Almost all of Monday was spent cleaning the drive and back deck. I'd plowed it good enough to get the car into the barn on Sunday afternoon, but there was still plenty of snow to remove.
With the thermometer reaching almost fifty degrees, the drive was melted completely bare by day's end.
The tax people called saying our taxes were finished. After a quick ride to town, Sargie and I decided to go on over to Iron Mountain and pick them up.
Unlike some politicians who obviously have more money than we do, we were happy that the government decided to share some "crumbs" with us little people this year in the form of a refund.
While in Iron Mountain, we did a bit of shopping and poking around. Fresh produce is beginning to appear in the grocery stores and though they look better than they taste, we purchased a couple of packs of strawberries.
It's time to end as I better get any big-person Pawpaw things done for the day before Hambone pulls in with his daddy. A high in the mid 40's is once again forecast, perfect for making snow forts and snowmen.

| The waterfalls and pond are completely covered over |
After all, a man's work is never done.
So are the tales from Pentoga Road...

| The Blazer was left to sit in the sun Monday afternoon so the snow and ice would melt from underneath. |
