I started at the pond (the chapel lot was fairly plowed but some guy parked in my spot, imagine! I don’t pull all the way up because there are big holes in the road and muffler is already not happy at me). Anyway, found the swans, got dumped on by the trees letting big clumps of snow loose, on my head, on my camera, all my bags wet and lucky to find one slightly damp hat in the camera bag to try drying camera. Fed the swans and tried shooing the geese but everyone is hungry (i can’t feed the planet) and came home, set everything to dry, found a new bag for the camera and went out again, to the chapel, which I wanted a picture of before people walk all over it everywhere, then noticed the trees across the road and slipped halfway across, lolol. All part of the adventure. Thanks for listening, be safe!
