24 JAN 26

It's a fluffy sugar snow in the morning... precursor to a greater dumping in the night...

Patience still squeezes in two hours at the studio before the roads start getting especially bad...

And Oxbear gets a few bags of chips to split over the rest of the to-be-snowed-in weekend...

Snow keeps piling in the afternoon... public warnings from power companies to reduce power usage not to overload the grid...

Oxbear has a can of homemade dulce de leche prepping in a pot of boiling water on the stove...

Yali intently plays Minecraft on my old laptop encrusted in dinosaur stickers at his basement desk...

Patience stirs up hot cocoa mix in the kitchen...

And Cheese has deeply buried himself in Puck's blankets to avoid becoming a cat-sicle...

Blue light into evening... heavy snow expected overnight... church already canceled for the morning... the great hunker-down begins...
