A cloudy dreary day, very cold. Today began to snow. It accumulated fast. Wind blowed by time we went to bed we had about 6 inches. I checked over Christmas list etc. Bill worked in a.m. at Gordon’s.

Wednesday, November 15, 1972 Snow, cleared and sunny this morning

Our first snow came last night and the ground is white. This is what we will see for the next six months or so. It began snowing late p.m. yesterday. Bill plowed out the driveways with Walt’s tractor. I worked in my bedrooms, washed windows and floors etc. Zak up here in the morning. This was a beautiful sunny day. Bill didn’t work. Bill don’t have to go out anymore nights plowing. I’m glad about that. It was so hard for him because of his lameness all the time etc.
