It is the last day of winter! There are signs everywhere! Most of them are farther south. The snow that has covered the ground for about four months is still in the yard but, here and there, the wretched remains of last autumn's grass are being uncovered.
Up on the roof, though, the ice dam that built up over our doorway has, just this day, been reduced to what we all finally get reduced to: a fragile remain.
A dam of ice it is no more! It is scarcely a pathetic lump of its former attempt to force water up into the house. It is, in fact (since I just went out to check), gone! Just in time for spring!
The weather man says we will get more snow next week.
Next week, I will show you a picture of the weather man lying up there on the roof.
