It began with a few inches on Dec.14. Enough for Kyle to try out his new board off the roof.
"Stand right here and try to catch the shot from underneath, Mom. I promise not to land on you." (I did. He didn't)
Snowed 6" on the 18th. Took a walk on the 19th in the calm between 2 storms
My favorite rhododendron (also white in bloom)
the Japanese maple pair out back
Back patio and those rhodies again
Glad the shed was re-roofed this year!
Front yard.
Hot air balloons frequently fill that spot in the summer
pre-shovel
Every man for himself on the driveway
The pasture across the street
walking up to the main drag
My favorite place - the old barn across the road
December 22
December 18 - back bench, starting to snow
same bench 4 days later
3 days later. MUCH more snow
no garbage pickup this week but the can will stay!
My hike to the mailbox
Kyle's jumping roof's a little thick now
December 18 - front porch, starting to snow
front porch 4 days later. Snow on the rails reminds me of "Silly Sand"
Only one icicle fell on me while shoveling
front yard. That tree branch doesn't normally lay on the witch hazel (to the left)
Come May it'll be covered in wisteria!
