Snow Day

As predicted, we received an inch of ice. 
I found this picture online.
Today was parent/teacher conference day. Which means I would have had a workday and I had lots of work to do, but I've been wanting a snow day. The whole yard was a giant sheet of ice. Kev played with the dogs.

Later that afternoon, we got bored and walked to the gas station about a mile away. I was not willing to get the Acadia out. Our street was a solid sheet of ice. It was fun to walk.
The sunset was beautiful when we got back. This is the pasture our front yard overlooks.
He was tired.
I was productive during the day. I painted our hutch. I still need the red paint for the back panels.
I also painted the drawers on our dresser teal. It was quite dark enough, so i am going to see if they can make it darker before I put on another coat.
I didn't get any school work done toady, but I have a feeling that I will be stuck here again tomorrow.

It took us a little over four hours and we only flipped the canoe once.  We came to some quick rapids and very low trees. While trying to duck under the trees, so our heads didn't get knocked off, we both leaned too far and there we went. Luckily everything was in dry bags and tied down. Well, almost everything. Kev was trying to put his phone back into the dry box but didn't get to it fast enough. His phone got wet, but seems to work ok after sitting in a bag of rice for a few days. I didn't have my shoes strapped tight so they slid off. A friend in front of us managed to grab one shoe and one paddle. We carefully walked the canoe across the rapid and dumped the water out. I will admit I was pissed off about my shoe. I didn't talk to Kev for awhile. I know it wasn't his fault, but I wanted to be mad at someone. He promised he would replace th
