Winter 2010

Happy Holidays...From our house to yours...

Guess it will be a white Christmas..

More snow, 12/12/10

We are on our second snow storm..it IS pretty but it is cold and nasty. Joel was getting a start on the plowing here and I shoveled just enough to fill the bird feeders. It is 15 degrees out so it isn't bitter cold but the wind makes it feel colder. Tried to add more photos but can't get them downloaded right now.

a foot of fresh snow

Well we were in the lake effect bullseye so we have so far gotten more than a foot of fresh snow since yesterday and probably will get another foot by tomorrow night..here is after I shovelled after noon today.

snow

Well we have our first 2 " of snow of the year, already doing dreaming with my newly arrived plant catalogs..I know..I know..can't buy yet.

I have been making  notes and sticking them on my 2011 calendars on things I want to do first thing in the spring, reminders and dream notes..repair the fences damaged by the wind, as soon as weather allows in the spring, tear off the laundry room deck and build a new one that fits our  needs, tear up the pavers in the front yard and lay a walk..

didn't finish this year's to do list and already have one started for next year.

did get a temporary door and cat door and plexi panel up in the rear opening, so it is totally closed off for the winter..ot perfect, nothing is ever perfect, but it will do....picture is LAST year's snow, in the front yard.
