Storm storm brewing....

When we left Raymond to head for Gorham, the weather

forecast was calling for blizzard conditions

for the next couple of days.

We decided it would be wise if we packed up and headed

to Portland area for the night, instead of coming back to Raymond.

Turned out, it was a smart move on our part.

After gathering with Rick and Brenda and Family,

we drove to stay with our good friends, Jim and Pat.

They graciously took us in out of the cold for the night

and put us up.

Jim cleaning off his windshield.
This is why Guy loves living in Florida for the winters...
Scraping and shoveling are not his favorite things to do..
The next day he went out with Jim and his snowplow
and "helped" him for the afternoon, while Pat and
I sat by the cozy fire, chatted, read and napped.

Meg and Mike stopped by to say their good-byes and
the Thomson's invited them to join us for dinner.

We had a delicious pot roast with all the trimmings...

Comfort food for sure....
