Wet, heavy snow this morning, requiring the services of a snowblower. Whole neighborhood out, about 7:30, working on snow removal.

By afternoon, rapidly falling temps and a biting wind. While Pax and I got in one good walk, we settled for the back yard after that. And, to ward off cabin fever, we watched an Illinois basketball game, first of the year. Oddly enough, Illinois is somewhat back, ranked this week, for the first time in years, in the top 25, and number 3 in the Big Ten.
