Morning Tea - Outside!

The sun was shining brightly and there was very little wind, so we took our tea outside to where Jan had cleared the snow from the bench last week.
It was lovely sitting there, Jan where you see her and me where my shadow is falling!
Our view was white snow, trees, and blue sky (see extra).
Once the tea was drunk I spent a few hours clearing ice from just in front of the door and then from the parking place. We call this "helping the spring to get going".
