A POLAR BEAR IN THE NEIGHBORHOOD...

a snow bear. Son sent these yesterday while driving through one of the neighborhoods on his way home, and I decided I would share today. 

He said the main roads have been cleared and it’s still tricky getting through the neighborhoods as there is only room for one car and no parking on the sides.


Thanks for looking and stay safe and warm.

  20. Heard from friends in Columbia, MD that school has been out all week. All the ice on top of the snow has been so treacherous.

    1. I can well believe it. I remember a friend’s daughter slipping on the ice a few years back and she broke her leg trying to walk to where the school bus picked her up. Schools here have been closed here for the week. Scheduled to return to school next Monday.

  22. That is a different take on a snow creation instead of a snowman. The roads here are clear for the main ones, but side streets are still not that great and piles of snow at the corners make visibility a challenge.

  23. That is a bigger than life polar bear!
