We had quite an early start this morning as I dropped David off to work and then went on to volunteer at my first blood drive for the American Red Cross, from 7.30, where I was working as both 'greeter' and refreshment volunteer. It all seemed to go well.
The drive was held in the busy YMCA building in Reston town centre and arriving in the car park, the frozen lake in the grounds looked quite spectacular in the early sun.
When I got back to the house this afternoon the sound of water dripping as the snow melted was quite loud and punctuated by the occasional crash as a large icicle fell from the guttering and smashed on the ground.
The temperature overnight is still low at -8C but a further sunny day tomorrow should mean that much of the snow and ice is melted soon.
