“In·de·fat·i·ga·ble: adj. cannot be tired out...”

This is Clare’s 78-year old mother clearing her driveway with a snow-thrower. A power tool I’d never used before, “Ah-ah-ah” (with apologies to Tim Allen) … until she let me take it for a spin! But the main point here is Mom! Tireless. Unwearying. Indomitable. She’s amazing.

Yay for Mom! I wish my dad were like that. My Mom is Wisconsin tough!

@danette Indeed, yay for Mom! Is your Dad from Florida and that's where you grew up (so this white stuff is relatively unknown to you)?

[Danette Thompson]

@rhoing I am a 7th generation Floridian. I did spend 5 years growing up around DC and those were cold years, so I understand some snow. getting down to 47 here tonight for the first time this winter. It's been hot here. :-(. My oldest wants to move to cold weather.

@danette So you come by your Orange & Blue loyalty quite honestly!
