WV sUSAn said...

Good morning all. Is that some new snow on the nest??

Mits said...

yes WV, looks like it is snowing there now.

stronghunter said...

Thands, Mits, and WV Susan for the call-over. Thanks Steve for the new thread.

Lynn, I have not seen or heard anything on my NOAA radio. I just went over and pressed some buttons. I think we had turned something off.

Usually, I don't need the loud alarms for anything short of a tornado, but it should have gone off before the storm we just had.

Eagle-Eyed Shar said...

Well, hello again everybody. I am heading out to a noon meeting and will be back shortly after 1. Not snowing here right now.

WV sUSAn said...

Been raining here in CRW all morning Mits

Lolly said...

I feel so sorry for Belle and Lib. Maybe they can hold off laying a new egg until after the snow melts. They are not protecting the fluff they brought in.

Feel sorry foir you guys too!

I am off now to eat some breakfast and maybe even do some housework.
I am cold, need to get up and move around.

floralgirl said...

It is snowing here now, and it's laying on the roads. Just got back from Sheptown. The roads are a nightmare. Snow and ice covered most places. Got kero and food.
Sandra's front porch roof looks like it's having snow issues:(

Lynne2 said...

Shirley, usually the birds will find sources of water in small puddles, especially if you have melting dripping from your house. It is helpful to put out a bowl if you can, but as you said, it won't take long to freeze so you'll just have to watch out for that.

Mema Jo said...

Thank you for calling us over for the new thread..don't like it's title but what are you going to do?
Thanks Steve.

Lynne - do you have to go onto your porch in order to go outside?
Your landlord yesterday telling you he thought it was ok - invite him over to stand on the porch while the ice falls! Maybe he will get the idea.

Lynne2 said...

Glad you got back OK Megan. Whoever Sharon is, I hope the roof doesn't come down.

Mema Jo said...

I wish I could just hibernate like Lily until it goes away!

LLea said...

What is IE? I cannot seem to get the picture either. just the swirling spiral bar. How do I fix this?

Mema Jo said...

Lynne - Megan said Sandra's porch
That is our Sandy Shaw at the 4-way stop in Shepherdstown before you go down to the Sheetz! Megan
It is a front porch - right?

Mema Jo said...

LLea - IE is the browser Internet Explorer that some of us use and we also use firefox.
When you see the Whirling arrows on the screen - Try clicking on them or on the lower left Play button. Sometimes it is slow.

Lynne2 said...

Jo, it the way we go in and out, the cars are out the back there, the trash, the yard, etc. and I have to pass through a small corner of it to get to the laundry room. I've got one more load to do and I'm done. But the danger will exist a long while. Now there is a leak in the other corner directly across from our back door where melting snow is coming in and creeping closer to the door. It freezes so fast the salt can't keep up with it.

floralgirl said...

It's her front porch, facing the road where you are headed to Sheetz. There is police tape around sidewalk to keep people from walking near it.

Mits said...

LLea, hello, sometimes I get that too, I just go above the pic and click on the eagle cam again....IE is Internet Explorer.

Mema Jo said...

Did it work LLea?

Lynne2 said...

oh no! That's not good.

Mits said...

poor Sandra, read on FB she still has no phone service, Frontier is coming tomorrow.

stronghunter said...

LLea

IE=Internet Explorer.

I just keep playing around with it. Sometimes it helps to click on the start button, sometimes it helps to refresh or just log off and log back on. Others may have a better solution. I usually succeed, but sometimes it takes awhile.

Mema Jo said...

Lynne - that is certainly a dangerous situation and it's not just going to go away soon.

Megan - Glad to hear of the precaution about Sandra's porch. I don't think they use that entrance much. I bet Tom put his own Police tape out!

Mema Jo said...

I am hoping that Sandra or Tom has a cell they can use.

Mema Jo said...

WE have Both eagles in our nest

Mema Jo said...

Checking out the egg cup

WV sUSAn said...

Both on the nest

Lynne2 said...

well, I see the first little flakes starting now. I am waiting for some good news on the noon weather report that the storm is tracking differently than they thought and we won't be getting as much snow......I hope. I wish. I doubt it.

WV sUSAn said...

I'm on still cam from office. Did they carry in more fluff Mema Jo?

Mema Jo said...

Guess Belle found the nestovers

Mema Jo said...

Lib went Poof

WV sUSAn said...

Was that squirrel from yesterday?

Mema Jo said...

I didn't see new fluff
They flew in like side by side to the egg cup
Belle was in the front & I couldn't see if Lib had any.

movin said...

Glad to see we have a new thread. Thanks, Steve.

From the fact that our pair aren't protecting the egg cup this time, it looks at though egg #3 has been put on indefinite hold.

We can relax on that score for a while it looks like.


C(°Ù¿°)D

Jim

Mema Jo said...

I think it was squirrel or rabbit
Really sounds like a frozen meal

Mema Jo said...

I think you may be right, Jim

Mits said...

Are we having fun yet:)??????

NatureNut said...

Almost Afternoon~~~Hello Everyone! Just saw a spot of SUN here!!!!Getting brighter in a white sky. For here they are downsizing somewhat---5" to 10".
Can't believe you in nest area have flakes already! News just said what you're getting now is NOT the main event.

WV sUSAn said...

I sure hope the eggs are on hold Jim. Not sure how that works or if that is an urge that can be supressed. Let's hope.

NatureNut said...

Just changed total accumulation 10" - 15"! There might be sleet and rain after midnight & flakes on Wed.

Lori O. said...

Hi Jo, Helen, Steve, NatNut, Susan, Lynn, Strong and all! So nice to see someone in the nest.

Stuck at work in Rockville - have to stay at hotel here tonight so this feels like a bit of home.

Mema Jo said...

Mits - I'm going to smack you silly if you ask that again....
ROFLMBO

Mema Jo said...

Lori - who is taking care of the dogs??
Thankful that you will be safe and off the roads - I guess you can walk to the station? Yes?

Lori O. said...

No violence on the blog Mema Jo. ☺
:)

Nature Nut, where did you see that they changed the snow totals?

Mema Jo said...

I am like Hedgie - I need to get these Valentines out! We haven't had mail for awhile. Whatever happened to their saying about Hail & Sleet and nothing stoping them......... lol

Glad I pay bills electonically.

WV sUSAn said...

Where are u NatureNut?

Lori O. said...

Hey Jo - I'll be right next door so I get to sleep in. Kate is taking care of the two bullies and 5 cats!

I have a snow gift of new boots being sent to her today!

Mits said...

oh Lori, I remember those days, with Kevin....glad you are safe and sound....that's right Jo, listen to Lori, no violence on here, I bruise easily:)

Mits said...

yes NWS/NOAA has not downgraded yet here.

Mits said...

I think Loretta lives in PG county????

Mits said...

there go the sirens:(

Mema Jo said...

Fire whistles - Eagle in egg cup

Hedgie do you know from the scanner what is going on?

Lori O. said...

Mits, we haven't had this big of a group for an overnighter since the President's Day Storm in '03 - once every 7 yrs isn't bad.

I can't find anything that has downgraded the snow totals for anywhere in Maryland. He has His reasons. ;)

normabyrd said...

GOOD MORNIN' WV SUSAN!!---I lived in Charleston -- several years ago!
Worked at the Capitol & husband graduated from 'MORRIS HARVEY'---That's how long ago it was!--STILL LOVE CHARLESTON!! COOL having you on our blog!

Mits said...

Lori, I remember that one, think Kev, lived in Severn MD for that storm....

WV sUSAn said...

O please tell me Belle is not working on an egg right now. Kinda looks like the position on still cam.

paula eagleholic said...

Snowing here :(

hedgie said...

Sure hope that Sandra's porch doesn't collapse. I just BET Frontier gets there tomorrow! HA! Only if they are a LOT better than Verizon. Don't know whether she or Tom have a celll phone or not, but I'm pretty sure that Tom would, as much time as he spends on the road to the city.
Mits.....you are so-o-o funny! Yep, Loretta, this is just a little band of stuff......still covers everything, tho'! Yuck.
Glad Sharon is getting out early. Would be nice if she could pick up THelma early and not have to go out again....assuming that they are inthe "snow zone", too.
Hi, Lori. So sorry you can't get home. Hope the dogs will be okay. Is your hubby home?

normabyrd said...

MEGAN!--HAPPY DAYS ARE HERE AGAIN!
Now maybe you can breath--I swear--our snow has stopped!!--The birds are devouring the seeds I covered the FROZEN SNOW with!--stay cool!

hedgie said...

I got BBQ short ribs going in the crock pot. Lid is intact!!! Smelling godd! THink I will make cornbread to go with it this evening.

Mits said...

there goes the train...

movin said...

Hahaha. I no more than mentioned they aren't protecting the egg cup, and here comes Belle.

Well, maybe she does have more in store for us.


C(°Ù¿°)D

Jim

normabyrd said...

WVSUSAN---She is certainly acting as if that is on her mind!---bless her heart--

WV sUSAn said...

Normabyrd... You know talking of Morris Harvey is kickin it old school, for sure. They have done a lot to the campus in recent years. Really looks good. A lot different from when I spent time on campus in the 70s... Or even when my daughter swam there in the 80s. O the time does fly.

Lori O. said...

Oh no - Paula said the "S" word. That's snow, for those who aren't here with us.

Can't believe how good it feels having all of you when I can't be home. ♥

Mema Jo said...

I was on a phone call....
Nesting in the egg cup now, worries me. Jim, maybe we were wrong.

Lynne2 said...

Look Norma! Jim has also fallen prey to the "ditto blog syndrome" today!

I think the mail came, yay!!

Here is my prediction....we will get the lesser amounts predicted, not the higher. Amen.

Lori O. said...

WV sUSAn - love how you do that with your name. Sometimes I do
gLORIous, just for fun.

Hi Normie, Hedgie & Jim.

Lori O. said...

AMEN for lesser amount of snow!

normabyrd said...

WVSUSAN---I have seen CU!--I was just talking with a friend that attends most of the events at CU!----She is a MH grad--now lives in Hurricane!

Lynne2 said...

LYNNE....nope, I got nuthin'.

Mema Jo said...

Newspaper was here this morning but no mail to date!

normabyrd said...

i am not kidding!--quit snowing here & the skies are almost sunny!

Judie said...

Thank you Steve.

Hey Jo, if you smack Mits silly just plead duress.

Can't do more than agree with so many comments about safety and being careful. Please don't take unnecessary chances.

No snow flakes yet but still predicting up to 15 INCHES in some areas.

Got cleaned up just in case. Going to try some laundry in case we lose power. May even do some cook-ahead food that can be warmed on the kerosene heater. Also going to toss seeds out on top of the snow.

Saw what I think was Belle sitting in the egg cup -- I do hope she isn't going to do what I think it looked like.

floralgirl said...

Don't get excited, heavier snow is due later, this is just the warm up... NWS still has us in 8" to 14"

Mits said...

from BWE....

Nest Update

02/09/10:
Weather Update
Another snow storm is coming. It might affect our image updating Tues. and Wed.

Here's a nice shot of our two eggs and the parents with the ever popular pine sprig.


go to their site to see the pic...its pretty

Mits said...

there are 2 chicks at Dunedin Osprey site

Mema Jo said...

LLea - I hope you were able to get the live feed started
Remember that the still cam is up/running with a 30 sec refresh.

normabyrd said...

MEMA JO!---I have more NEWSPAPERS than I can count!---all the back Cumberland Times papers--I didn't receive & 3 Charleston Gazettes!--ALL YEAH--LIFE IS GOOD!!

Lynne2 said...

Judie, you too! We've had a "ditto" problem on the blog!

Mema Jo said...

BWE egg cup is really dry.

Mema Jo said...

Lunch time here.......

Mits said...

lol...hey Judy, what about my duress when she smacks me silly????

WV sUSAn said...

Lori. I love gLORIous. That's great.
Lynne2. I get "ditto blog" too. Haha. Glad you got mail.

All. I swear to goodness, I think Belle is working on egg #3 in yet another snow storm. Getting ready...

Mits said...

ah, after last weekend 15 inches sounds like a dusting...sounds like wind might be the big factor this time....don't like wind:(

Mits said...

no mail here since last Friday...have the kids valentine cards put out in case she comes, but if not here by 2 or 3, I will go find a mail box...

Judie said...

My turn to get double-posted. My delete.

Live cam - Belle still sitting in egg cup. I am hoping she can wait.

Jo, then it becomes self-defense.

Okay, I really am leaving to get some pre-storm chores done.

Mits said...

hmmm, lunch, I forgot breakfast, just java here all morning.

movin said...

yES, lYNNE. The blog told me that there were two attempts to "edit" the blog when I clicked on "publish."

Then when I tried to navigate forward and back, I ran into the double post.

Deleted it, got lost in blogspace again and got signed out.

Funny process, isn't it?


C(°Ù¿°)D

Jim

Mema Jo said...

I'm listening to Judie's advise!

I'm not sure what Belle is trying to tell us by being in the egg cup.
Today or tomorrow would be the right timing for the 3rd egg.

Mema Jo said...

Like why else would Belle be sitting in the egg cup other then to get an egg?

Lori O. said...

Yum, coffee sounds good about now.

Jim, I did the ditto thing this week, too. Must be goin' around.

Gosh, Belle looks so beautiful on the nest in the snow with her head held high like that.

normabyrd said...

MEGAN---I'll never forget that 4-way stop!---Xmas a year ago---The other guy came on thru the 4-way!
SANDY & TOM were so kind!

Lolly said...

Obvious that cabin fever is setting in what with Jo threatening Mits with violence. However, it was much deserved! Gotta watch what you say in these tough times, Mits.

paula eagleholic said...

Well, as ya'll saw on Saturday, if egg #3 is in the works, there's nothing Belle can do about it. I hope not.

Lolly said...

Just made a hair appointment to get it trimmed and have a doctor's appointmnent tomorrow. Hostess at church Thursday evening, so I will be baking. I am thinking sopapilla cheesecake and choc dipped strawberries...then roll them in pecans. How does that sound? The other hostess is doing the napkins etc and a veggie plate. They will like mine better!!

Lolly said...

Poof!

Mema Jo said...

Up off egg cup
Fly out
Belle went Poof
MT nest

Lori O. said...

Lolly - sounds fabulous! Save some for us.

Mema Jo said...

Lolly Where did you say your church was and what time was that.
lol

Mema Jo said...

Our snowflakes are getting larger and it is heavier now.

Lolly said...

Will do! Love choc dipped strawberries and think rolling them in chopped pecans would be fabulous. Have plenty of pecans for sure! Jack is up to the 18th gallon bag and more to shell. Bless him!

Mema Jo said...

Norma - I think you shoved the snow down this way on us!

Mits said...

that's ok Judy says I can smack her back Lolly:):)

Mits said...

sun is peeking thru the clouds here.

Mema Jo said...

Return of the eagle
(That could be Lib)

Checking out egg cup and seems to be deepening it.......

hedgie said...

Yippee---flag is down on mailbox, so Valentines went out! Mommy and kids will get their love dose!! Well....Carolyn and grands may not----since she has a PO box....sure she won't get there at this rate. Not expecting any important mail so am NOT hiking out again today.

Lolly said...

Do not see snow falling at the nest right now,. Saw a little earlier.

Eagle back with more fluff I think. She is working it over. Good for her.

Little late turning my Feb calendar and there was the Lord and Lady BW with little Snow White and Frosty!☺

Mema Jo said...

Need some fresh food in the nest

Looking at the feathery neckline it looks like Belle..

Lori O. said...

Lolly, anyone who shells 18 gallon bags full of nuts is crazy in love with whomever he is doing it for :)

Lolly said...

EEEEuuuuuu! Stringy leftovers!

Lolly said...

No, just crazy....or "nuts". lol

paula eagleholic said...

I vote for the sopapilla cheesecake, Lolly.

Lolly said...

two!!!!!!!!!

paula eagleholic said...

Looks like Belle eating and Lib is back...

Heading out to slosh thru the slushy downtown streets....bbialw

Lolly said...

Have you ever warmed your sopapilla cheesecake? OMG! It is so good!

Mema Jo said...

You have to wonder what Lib is thinking!

paula eagleholic said...

LOL, don't even think about picking at my crumbs....too funny!

hedgie said...

Just a few, large, lazy flakes now. Guess band one is about over. About an inmch out of it.

paula eagleholic said...

Oh yes, Lolly, I have. Haven't even eaten it cold, although I know you said it could be eaten that way.

Lolly said...

Ahhhh, Lib is hungry,too. Did you see him cautiously sneak a bite?

Mema Jo said...

Lib went poof

Maybe he is going to catch a train..

Lolly said...

Come on guys, stomp around the nest, throw out some snow.

Poof...off goes Lib. Maybe he can find his own food.

Lolly said...

LOL Jo! Maybe he is going to just fly around.

Lolly said...

Pulling off fur??

Lynne2 said...

what is sopapilla cheesecake? Sounds like I want some of dat!

Lynne2 said...

we have another little band of light snow now.

Dana Gray said...

It sure does sound like Spring at the nest...songbirds

normabyrd said...

need food!----still no snow--

Lolly said...

Sopapilla cheese cake is so simple. You make it with Cresent rolls and of course...cream cheese. It melts in the mouth!!!

Lolly said...

Eeeeuuuuuu! Gross! Getting rid of the stringy remains. Poof...off she goes!

Lolly said...

Lynne, google sopapilla cheese cake and you will get the recipe.

Lolly said...

Hair appointment at 2, need to get a few things done.

BBL

Judie said...

I'm leaving on a TRAIN headed for Lolly's house!

Washer is not working and Darth is trying to fix it. Should have known! I may commit washercide.

Mema Jo said...

Snow is the valley has stopped...
I don't know what to expect next.

floralgirl said...

It should stop for a while now, they say snow will start again later this evening.

Anne-Marie said...

rain, rain and more rain. wet and cold but at least not snow. went south for the weekend and the orchards were full of blossoms. got to finish up a genealogy and pay bills today. I will be in and out . I haven't deserted you guys just busy..

Mema Jo said...

I'm taking a break

BBWhenever

WV sUSAn said...

Hey Lolly. When is the cheesecake going to b ready??? That sounds delish!

Lynne2 said...

oh my, fist Mits and Jo are going fist to cuff and now Judie wants to commit washercide....HURRY SPRING!!!

Lynne2 said...

Lolly, just looked up the recipe and they look delicious!

WV sUSAn said...

Hahaha. Ahhhhhh the drama. Washercide sure sounds serious.

Blondiegrrl said...

Hello all,

This is my first post here, but I've been lurking for awhile. I was wondering if I needed a specific web browser to view the web cam. I have Internet Explorer, and no video is coming up. (However, I had the same browser last spring and I had no trouble viewing the video then.)

Mits said...

Hello, Blondie, it is a different cam provider this year....I'm not IT savvy, but most are on here, and it may have something to do with upgrading your Adobe Flash player...someone will be by soon to help you:)

floralgirl said...

When I open the live feed cam page with Internet Explorer, it takes me a few times to get it going. Just try hitting the play/pause buttons several times. This usually gets it started for me. I've been having this issue for about two days.
Eagle is still in the nest now. At least not on the egg cup.
Gonna lay down for a while, this is the calm before the storm...

floralgirl said...

Yes, if you don't see the cam at all on the page, you probably need to update your player.

Mits said...

rest well Megan, hate to see more snow for you, but am hoping they are wrong about the sleet and freezing rain, and winds

floralgirl said...

Eagle working on the nest cup now.

Donka Maria said...

Making the egg cup deeper? Sounds crunchy. I wonder if its still frozen underneath?

floralgirl said...

Thanks, snow we can deal with, the wind is gonna be a whole different story.

Mits said...

sure it is frozen, Dona

Mits said...

both there.

floralgirl said...

Oh and Jo, Washington county schools just called, no school tomorrow...uh yeah- they should just go ahead and call it for the rest of the week.

Ms Bookworm said...

Hi, Everyone,
Have just gotten somewhat caught up on the blog.
Lolly, CONGRATS to your Michael! No wonder you're so proud of him!
Judie, sounds like your washer is trying to beat you to the punch, and commit suicide! Good luck with that!

Was really tired after school last night, and fell asleep before I could get here. Have been studying today for Thursday's final exam.

It's raining here--started very soon after I unlocked the gate for the gardener. Had hoped he could get the lawn done before it started. Oh, well. Minor inconvenience, compared to what you guys back east are dealing with!
Am hoping and praying that everyone's roofs will hold up! It's really unbelievable how much water, and s___ weigh! When I was in college and worked at an aquarium/tropical fish store, I learned that water weighs 5 lbs. per gallon.

WV sUSAn said...

I am on still cam but.. Are our favorite couple "doing the deed?"

Donka Maria said...

It's good to seem them both together.

Donka Maria said...

gotta go back to work, just checking in. Hope everyone is prepared for the weather. Stay safe and warm.

Mits said...

double poof.

Ms Bookworm said...

Oh, forgive my manners! Welcome, Blondiegrrl! Nice to meet you!

Mits said...

just landed on branch up above.

Ms Bookworm said...

Wish I could stay and gab, but got to get back to studying. Will check in later, before school. Have a good day, stay warm, and be safe! :o]

Mits said...

back in nest

Mits said...

thanks, Andrea...we are trying

Lori O. said...

Sneakin' back in.

I think I have "avatar envy" today.

I love Anne Marie's eagle avatar and am totally taken with Lolly's sunny smiley face.

Ms Bookworm said...

Oops--have my sound turned up, so heard Lib (?) fly in with the stick. Good to see some nestorations going on. Have to really admire the eagles' perserverance and dedication! God bless them even more in this horrible weather!

Mits said...

yes, they are to be admired...thank heavens they don't have the human emotion of frustration.

Eagle-Eyed Shar said...

Blondiegrrl, are you using this year's link to the live feed or last year's?

Eagle-Eyed Shar said...

Did you all know that if you put in a comment and conflicting edits comes up, you can hit the arrow-back and your comment will still be there?

hedgie said...

Humpfff...got my "new" FB page now----I don't like it ' either. It shows example #3 for log-on/off---and it's not even there....duh? Jo, where did you finally find it???

Eagle-Eyed Shar said...

Could definitely hear the HP happening just now.

stronghunter said...

Washercide? Sounds violent. May I watch?

Gotta make another store run. Forgot the biscuits Kathryn requested. Want some for myself, too.

No snow here yet, but I see it on the weather map.

Even had a bit of sunshine. Cloudy now.

Blondie, you should be able to get the live feed. I am on Internet Explorer. If the cam doesn't come up the first time, I sometimes have to log off and log on to the cam again.

Click on this link: Live Cam

Eagle-Eyed Shar said...

Bird inventory right now - flicker, yellow-bellied sapsucker, nuthatch, cardinal, white-throated sparrow, chickadee, goldfinch, blue jay, dark-eyed junco, titmouse, and I think a warbler but can't identify which one.

Mits said...

whenever I have gotten that, Sharon, I go up above and hit the refresh button, and it goes right thru.....also, sometimes it might take awhile for post to post, if you hit it again, you will get a double post... so, don't hit it..... ok now I'm confused...:):)tee-hee, but it works for me:)

stronghunter said...

Lawn? Andy, what is a lawn?

Judie, you could probably fling that washer out the window and it would disappear into a snowdrift.

Eagle-Eyed Shar said...

If you click on account, logoff is listed under there Hedgie!

Lori O. said...

Gosh everyone is here in the afternoon, Sharon, Megan, Bookworm (good luck on the test), Hedgie, Mits ...

Is it a snow day for anyone?

stronghunter said...

Tried to buy a new grate for my fireplace, but none was available. They said there would probably be more later on. I thought maybe there wouldn't be anything else until the fall.

Jamaica ad on. Sigh. That would be nice.

hedgie said...

Judie, Judie, Judie....if you commit washercide, will you be hung out to dry????? ROFLMBO!

Sharon, I did learn that not too long ago---it doesn't ALWAYS work, but mostly it does!!! Ha! A way around the blogger cop!

Getting ready to go try to tamp down my path to the satellite dishes before the next onslaught. Wish me luck. Will have phone in my pocket so I can call Margy at 911 if I collapse.

Dana, did you get the med???

hedgie said...

Oh...sorry....welcome, blondiegirl Let us know more aobut you! Where are you watching from?

Mits said...

roflmbo...good one, Lynn:)

stronghunter said...

Have been wondering if I should try to push the snow off my front porch roof. Could do it from the upstairs windows. Probably not. It might tear off the gutters.

stronghunter said...

Funny one, Lynn.

Lynne2 said...

oh no, now Shirley is telling Judie how to get rid of the body, I mean, machine.....this is not good. Guess I'll be guilty by association!

LMAO Lynn!!!!

Mits said...

poor Judy is probably running around in cycles:(

Mits said...

Lori, it seems like everyday is a snow day now.

Lynne2 said...

I thought about doing that to the porch roof, Shirley...I can reach out the bathroom and spare bedroom windows...but it's too wide to get it over the edge with my longest push broom :( I'd end up with blocking the gutters worse.

Lynne2 said...

LMAO Mits.....you're right, given how agitated she must be.....

Mits said...

roflmbo.....another knee slapper, Lynne

Lori O. said...

GREAT news -- DC snow totals now
7 - 14... but Frederick still 10 - 20 inches.

Lori O. said...

That was the 2:51 updated Storm Warning from NOAA

stronghunter said...

Lynne, I am thinking that if you damage something because of an action you take, you are going to be in trouble. If you do nothing, you can't be held responsible. Your landlord needs to deal with it, and you have made him aware of the problem.

For myself--I have homeowner's insurance that will pay if the porch collapses, but if I knock off the gutters . . .


I have no reason to think there is a problem with my porch. I just see a lot of snow up there.

stronghunter said...

So you think Judie is spinning by now.

paula eagleholic said...

Montgomery county schools are closed the rest of the week!

Lori - do you have to pay for hotel room or is work paying for it?

Lynne2 said...

That's true Shirley, I thought about that as well.

Lynne2 said...

I hear some thumping...if she IS spinning, I fear the load is unbalanced.

Eagle-Eyed Shar said...

The nest looks almost like a smiley face with eyes, high nose and mouth!

stronghunter said...

I think we are all going to be closed the rest of the week.

Lori O. said...

I was just hoping since DC and Virginia are getting less it will be better for the eagles.

I'll check.
Here is nest cast -- hahaha.

A WINTER STORM WARNING REMAINS IN EFFECT UNTIL 7 PM EST
WEDNESDAY.

* PRECIPITATION TYPE...SNOW. SNOW WILL MIX WITH SLEET AND RAIN
LATE THIS AFTERNOON AND TONIGHT ACROSS LOWER SOUTHERN MARYLAND.

* ACCUMULATIONS...7 TO 14 INCHES.

* TIMING...SNOW WILL BEGIN LATE THIS AFTERNOON AND LAST THROUGH
WEDNESDAY. MODERATE SNOW RATES WILL OCCUR TONIGHT...AND HEAVY
SNOW IS EXPECTED WEDNESDAY MORNING.

paula eagleholic said...
