A little art from an ancestor, also a grad from some famous art school in Chicago. She was a nice grandmother but did not publish much...

For context - and inspiring the unanswered "gramma, what were the drugs like in 1966?" She died in '17 at 97yo, and was very lighthearted and artistic to the end - this one's weird however. A fun family souvenir... (editing to add - woah, I'm like her age then/now)

Winter showed up Christmas evening, by noon on the 26th we had 8" of snow. Looks like it's staying at least a week.
Temps dropped like a rock as cold air flowed in from the frozen North late yesterday,
woke up this morning to 4 degrees, very rare for the Puget Sound lowlands, par for the course up in the Cascades this time of year.

Last night's rain total, last measurable rain for 2021 around here. We got all of 6.25" all this calendar year.

Yup! This thing is FUN! :)

Over on the Garage journal, that would deserve a "you suck" response. (Which is good.)
