Enjoying Winter in Pennsylvania

January 5th - Saturday - A beautiful day in Northern Pennsylvania.

As you can see we have snow, in fact we have received a total of 20 inches.  I have to admit that I have enjoyed shoveling the snow.  Lou caught cold right after Christmas and was in bed when the snow arrived, so Steve and little Matthew came down and helped me shovel.  Steve used the snow blower and Matthew had a ball running around in the paths that we shoveled out for him.

The snow has brought the birds out in full force and it brought the Red Polls out of the woods in little flocks and we have really enjoyed them.  Just a few came at first, and now we have a large flock of them.  The good thing about them is, they will eat off the ground like the doves, so nothing goes to waste.  We also have our regular birds that come every year.  By not going to Florida we are really enjoying them this year.
