More Snow Pictures

This was yesterday.   BEFORE it started snowing AGAIN.  Notice my large fountain in the middle of the round garden?  See the sticky up pole in front of tree? that's one corner of one entry, fountain is in middle, fountain got knocked down with the lawnmower, it's fine just needs picked up.  I'll get some green pictures on here tomorrow, maybe.  Pole is from my dads bird feeder, I never took it down, Mugsey the Golden Lab ate the bird feeder I had in the tree.  I'm not kidding.



The photo below was in 2004 the day before Thanksgiving.   One of the last big snows we had before this winter.  Husband made me terribly mad that day.  I carried the air conditioner from our bedroom to the basement by MYSELF while he was yakking on the phone and SAW me.  He was NOT blameless. Surprise surprise, he was peeling potatoes for dinner the next day and told me to go out and take these pictures.  I'm glad I took them.  Glad he peeled the potatoes too.   Do I hold a grudge?  nope he peeled potatoes.  Suck up no grudge, that's how that works isn't it?  Don't worry I talk this way to him too. 





Husband and Son In Law bought blades to blade the driveways in 2004.  It effectively quit snowing then.  OK it really didn't quit snowing but we didn't have very much.  They are exonerated  this year.   Tractor blade for big tractor $1000, see why they were in trouble?

It can quit snowing now.  We've used the blades, forgot where our snow shovel is. I'm considering buying actual boots if it keeps piling up.  Hey Mother Nature.... Truce, we won't wish for snow like we used to have any more, OK?

  1. Snow does make for some beautiful photos, snow plus sunset is gorgeous. Looks like you got quite a bit of snow. Glad to hear the blade finally got used but sorry too.

    I know where my snow shovel is and I have more than one pair of really great boots. Trouble is the only snow we had was in December. Last month were were having sixty degree weather. Now it's in the forties and foggy. That doesn't sound all that bad but our snow pack in the mountains is below normal and that could mean water shortages come summer. I wish El Nino would go away.

  2. Oh Judy, I know you are supposed to have more snow in the mountains especially. I've been through those mountains when chains were required or they were ready to shut the pass down. It's beautiful beyond compare though.
    Snow does make for some lovely pictures. I didn't get the ones I really wanted though. Of deer and Coyotes.

  4. I love snow! Mr J uses the tractor bucket to clear our drive, but only when it gets deep enough to bother. It got deep enough to bother this week! Bring it on!
