"if you don't like the weather here, just wait a few minutes..."

Mention snow to most folks, and this is what they associate with the white stuff.


But as the TV tower cam shows, on a clear day you can see the mountains. We're on the extreme right side of them thar hills.


But there's also other images folks around the place have found, such as this...


....and this....


.....and this. All being enjoyed by..........


.......this wise fella, and......


....this handsome Irish wolf-hound/bull-mastiff mix,........



.....and several (???) perching waxwings. But, if you crave.......


.....doing this, or.......


......especially seeing or doing this. I'm afraid that if you live near our place and are staying here for the time being. Then be prepared for more........

Our Little World Seen (mostly)Through Our Windows

Our Spring sees mud dry, and ice floes to go.
Our Summer sees the grass, struggle to grow.
Our Fall's vibrant hues, set the trees all aglow.
But Our Winter, ahhh Our Winter, has a carpet of snow!!

Yes, two shots (1 & 4) are of the same tree on consecutive days this week. And the snow on the left side of image 2 isn't a tree, it's SWMBO's eyeview of the snowpile beside the car out back. And yes, I KNOW it says 2009. That's because no matter how hard we try, we can't convince the digicam it's really 2008. Some sort of glitch the manufacturer claims. Yeah!! Maybe like instructions in English given to the Asian chip maker?? But, I just love living where the seasons make such spectacular entrances and such timid withdrawals. Kinda makes you feel alive with anticipation of what comes next while enjoying what you have.
