Icicles on our house that are bent by the wind. The snow isn't deep enough for the kids to be able to knock the icicles off the edge of the roof.
We have skinny icicles this year. The temperature was moderating, but now it is cold again. Susan and I could not take a five minute walk with the dog without much discomfort from the sharp fingers of icy cold wind invading our hopeful spring clothing. Sorry, I've been teaching more descriptive writing over and over again. Well, I learned it, anyway.
Worlds longest icicle? It is around 48 inches.
It is close to April 1st and do I have the cabin fever. I have been trying to walk to the airport and back, but it is still very cold.
Well, are you cold? I still don't know how the dogs that are kept outside 24-7 and given a fish to eat once a week (or so I hear that is how often) live. I guess plenty of them don't. A student confided to me that he shot a dog the other day when they went rabbit hunting. I guess that is another way to not make it through the winter. Oh, I read in a book that the Alaska Natives boil rabbit. Is that how they do it in Arkansas? I told the kids about a cotton tail I once shot with worms between the skin and flesh. They asked me, did I pick them off or eat it with the worms on. I told them I didn't eat the rabbit at all and don't think I am eating any of your rabbits, either. They really laughed at that one.

cool pics uncle david and aunt susan. I am sure you guys will be ready to get back to warmer temperatures soon.
Yes, we can't wait. That is all I think about. I like all the kids, but it does become a grind because they only think about the end of school, too. They don't like to watch movies much, so I can't entertain them that way. They do like to draw and color though. They really like to hear and tell stories. Hope you all are doing great!!
