A large red tailed squirrel glides across the knobby pine branch outside my window this morning. He stops and eats something and the branch shakes. Then another squirrel chases him and both are zipping around the tree in and out of my window view.

The two empty houses in my neighborhood have roofs thick with frost. The old women have died and the houses are now unheated. My heater is blowing warm air this morning and the cold night air is receding.
