Good grief..talk about hazardous :shock:
Don’t get it too bad here, but even so..one bucketful and everything comes to a standstill..schools and colleges closed for the day etc :roll:

You and your colleagues doing a fantastic job, keeping traffic on the move in such treacherous conditions, so hazardous ~ thumbs up for you BH!

The Outer Banks have so many Lighthouses we used to make it a practice to
visit one each time we were down there. Here is one called "Bodie Lighthouse"
To think I climbed to the top - wouldn't try it now!! :D
The small building is a Gift Shop and that is where I go now!!!

A chap on the road next to us each summer plants a vegetable garden and always puts a row of Sunflowers
in front of it. It is such a cheery sight to see passing by on a dreary day! :-)
