Snow Season

The fall bedding is still on our bed, but it's beginning to look like winter outside. Thus, I thought it was time to begin my 2019-20 Keweenaw County snowfall chart. Just click on the Snowfall Chart page in the left column.

All is well in the Keweenaw.

Sunday Reflections


If we know Him, learn of Him, and draw close to Him - He will change our hearts and desires to align with His.

Sunday Reflections - Father's Day

Northbound - Mackinac Bridge, Michigan

This may not be a traditional Father's Day photo, but we made a trip downstate recently so Mr. Cut Off could be part of a 5-generation photo with family. I'm thankful for a hubby who prays daily for his children, grandchildren and new great grandson.

All is well in the Keweenaw.

Spotted this cute doe resting on the hill next to our driveway
as we drove away one day recently!

Sunday Reflections - Mother's Day!


I didn't take this photo, but I included one of my mother's favorite verses. She has often quoted this verse as part of her testimony of God's loving care for her.

Sunday Reflections


Thanks to all who sent me get well cards and messages after my unexpected appendectomy last week. The staff at our local hospital took great care of me during my stay, and Mr. Cut Off has taken on extra duties at home to cover for me. His sweet disposition is always a blessing. 

I love how the Lord often seems to make my Sunday Reflections verses so appropriate for my life on the day they're posted even though I've usually scheduled them weeks in advance. As I edited this post to add a quick note, I noticed that was the case again today.

All is well in the Keweenaw.

Old Man Winter

Well, we survived our most recent blizzard without a loss of power and no trees down on top of buildings or across our driveway! I also made it home from the hospital before blizzard conditions began, so that made me (and Mr. Cut Off) very happy! Yeah, hospital. There was an unexpected appendectomy inserted into my life last Friday, but I'm doing fine now - recovering at home, nice and cozy, looking out at this lovely view.

We've had 86" of snow just in the month of February (so far)! It's white and it's deep! As of this morning, our current season total is 264". That's right around our average snowfall for the season, and March and April can both bring us a lot of snow, so we'll see what happens. I know most people wouldn't mind if we had a partial meltdown or two before Spring arrives to try to reduce our piles a bit before the big thaw. 

I looked out one of our bedroom windows 2 weeks ago and saw this.

I dubbed him "Old Man Winter." Is it just me or can everyone see the face? There's a nose, eyelashes, a beard, a neck and even a belly button!

All is well in the Keweenaw.
