Happy St. Patrick's Day to my little Irish Princess. Mandy was born 3 months premature in 1981. 3-1/2 months later her mom passed away. Mandy lives with cerebral palsy from her early birth. In 2002 she was crowned Miss Hibernia (Irish Queen) of Genesee County in Michigan. For the last 18 years she has lived and worked in Bethel Alaska, 400 miles off the road system, as a special needs teacher.
This song is for Dianna, my wife, who is still missed daily.

Day One of the Northern Michigan Christmas Blizzard 2022.
The waiting begins. My daughter is supposed to fly out of her small Alaskan town today at 7:53pm Alaskan time. Right now, they are under an extreme wind chill warning. Currently the temp is -15 with a windchill of -54. So far there are no flight cancellations. She is supposed to arrive in Traverse City Michigan tomorrow at 111:22am. Just hours ahead of the major winter storm which could drop 1-2 feet of snow and blizzard conditions by Christmas morning. I can relax once she is here.
Let It Snow
Tonight's walk. More snow on the way. It should be a white Christmas.

In just a few days I get to head here. My daughter will be flying in, and we will spend some family time at Grandma's house.
The Igloo
It never opened its doors as a hotel because it couldn't pass safety regulations. The structure still stands but it now hosts graffiti.
