A Good Day to Stay Inside

 The view looking out the same window as my last post!
The wind must have been from a different direction...
I've not seen snow on our screens like this all winter.

More than we Need...

Until Spring...

Seeing so many blooms on some of the garden blogs I visit make me very, VERY excited about spring.  However, I think we have a bit of winter to experience here yet.  Some of the snow IS melting these days, and the wind is blowing - hopefully evaporating some of the potential flood waters.
 I found these paintings of irises in a thrift store yesterday.  I will have to settle for them for awhile, I guess.
Until spring...

Blizzard of 2011

Inside...looking out last night...blizzard warnings in effect...very little traffic on our normally-busy road...
The scene off our front porch this morning.
Great friends, father & son, with heavy-duty equipment
made quick work of the snow that fell during the night.
Meanwhile, more falling.
