Got snow? We do! Pics!

17 years ago

We had about 12" of blowing and drifting snow this week - no school all week. Today I went out to take some snow shots, thought it might make all the southerners feel warm to see them!

Here's my bike half buried in snow:

And some strawberry pots on my porch with snowy caps:

And my outhouse, looking very cold and dreary - but do notice the two bluebirds in the mealworm feeder:

And to see if you're really awake, a shot of it in it's glory:

Dreamin' and wishin' for spring........

It's been colder than usual here this week. Everybody I speak with declares the only snow they want to see is in photos. I really enjoyed yours.

BTW The editors at the Instructables site just e-mailed me that this one is also being featured. Been up less than 24 hours. If I wasn't so humble I'd be impressed with myself.

Pat, my mom called yesterday just to let me know it was snowing up there in Redding! And it continued for the next 2 hours of our conversation, although it did turn rather slushy later on, she said. Their temp gauge only read 35F-37F, but it was plenty cold up in the clouds. :) I'm loving this rain we're getting down here! Brenda

We have not had any measurable rain or snow so far whatsoever. Super dry and fire alerts. If this keeps up, we will have another dry, hot drought year. I hope this winter drought ends. We could use a good two or three feet of snow! We had snow last week. Tiny flakes all morning long from one little cloud in the sky (I'm serious) and the sun was shining to beat the band! It lightly dusted the grass like powdered sugar on a cake. The sun illuminated the flakes and they looked like gold glitter falling from the clear blue sky. So beautiful but very strange. My daughter lives in Columbia, SC. She called this morning (Tuesday) to tell me it was snowing there. She is sending pictures. She was so excited! Cameron, I have pictures of snow in my front yard from last year (or the year before) and one is almost a duplicate of your first photo! It is amazingly like yours - minus the bench. :) ~ Annie

Yes Paul. I was thinking the same thing as Tom! lol It's beautiful and you are right about the bluish color. I love the snow on everything just before sunrise, in someone else's yard. Tom, by the way, we will have the same stuff in our yards come Christmas eve into Christmas day-) Hello Josh:-) Mike

I love the snow pictures with your junk, but you can keep it! LOL It was 28 with a wind chill of 15 here yesterday morning and mid 30s this morning with a windchill of 20+ and that is way too cold for me. Wind chill didn't get out of the 30s all day today.....

I would love to have some of that snow....it's been bitterly cold here, and no snow cover. I'm afraid we are going to lose a lot of our perennials.
