Winter is the pits. In the Seattle area, where the weather is usually moderate, we had a week of 20-degree weather and snow – just a skiff where I Iive but in Bellingham, Washington, near the Canadian border, snowfall totals varied across western Whatcom County, with some areas reporting more than 10 inches on the ground.
During our cold weather, I headed to the capital grounds in Olympia to get the above photo of the fountain, its water turned into ice.
Meanwhile, the bloggers in our group are keeping active despite winter weather:
Meryl Baer
Meryl Baer of Musings of a Shore Life is on the road again. Her objective was to flee the rain, snow, and bitter cold where she lives. And she succeeded, finding beautiful weather, tranquil surroundings, and a laid-back existence she is reluctant to leave, as she tells us in this week’s post.
Carol Cassara
Is it possible to become a sports fan in your 70s? It happened to Carol Cassara of Carol A. Cassara Writer, and she tells us all about it this week in her piece, “Wait … Have I Become A Sports Fan?”
Laurie Stone
Do you have a mixed marriage? No, Laurie Stone of Laurie Stone Writes isn’t talking race, religion, or politics. But she’s talking about a difference so challenging, so fraught with misunderstanding, so bewildering, she’s wondered how her marriage takes it. Randy is an extrovert. She’s an introvert. Yet as the decades have rolled along, they’ve learned specific ways of coping with each other’s personalities.
Jennifer Koshak
In her previous post, Jennifer Koshak of Unfold and Begin reminded us that while we get older, we don’t have to get old. Her current post, “Discover the Joy of Trying New Hobbies,” gives us some ideas about things we can try to keep us learning and growing.
Rebecca Olkowski
Rebecca Olkowski with BabyBoomster.com has been busy getting ready for her daughter’s wedding in Los Cabos, Mexico, next weekend. She would love it if you visited her YouTube channel where she does interviews, product reviews, and sometimes offers lifestyle tips @RebeccaOver60.

Thanks. As usual, I like all the great articles.
It’s even winter here in northern California, our rainy time.
Yes, my daughter lives in Sacramento and she says it’s raining a bit every day.
Thanks for sharing, Rita!
