Sorcerer's Cap

We have had 4 to 6 inches of snow followed by some pretty stiff winds. The ball of this newel post had a perfect cone on it but the winds sculpted it into the perfect hat for Mickey Mouse.



Lovely Mary Donnelly

When she stood up for dancing, her steps were so complete,
The music nearly killed itself to listen to her feet;
The fiddler moaned his blindness,
He heard her so much praised,
But blessed his luck to not be deaf
When once her voice she raised.

--William Allingham
