Day 2676 Very inviting

12th December 2024

Well the snow is back, about two inches fell all day, and it’s bloody cold.

I never thought I would live in a place where it snowed a lot, it makes me yearn for England and its mild winters.

I had to drive to the post office which is further down south shore drive, the main road was gritted right up to the city limits, then nothing, just white roads and no grit. That was a bit dodgy, but I survived. The guy that man’s the place is not the happiest person, he took my envelopes, weighed them and gave me the stamps without saying much at all.

It was my beer tasting day, so I met up with Lloyd and some old speckled hen.

At least the place was warm, not many customers, well who in their right minds would go out into the cold to drink cold beer? I know this one, me.

We had lots to talk about, but this time Lloyd ordered some food. He had to get his own dinner  this time, I had a lasagna waiting for me when I got home.

The burger and fries was placed on the table, my mouth watered, the fries were big and chunky, not the thin weedy ones that other restaurants serve. I swear they called to me, and if Lloyd had offered me some I would have grabbed a handful, but he didn’t.

I had to sit and watch him devour the whole plate, leaving only a lettuce leaf.

It was still snowing when we left, but thanks to the city’s under pavement heating system  kept everything clear.

The thought of the hot lasagna waiting for me drove me on.
