Winter arrived a little early for this part of the country. . .

My son and his family live out in the country.  All these photos are taken from their yard last Monday because there are no sidewalks and the roads had ice on them under the snow, I couldn't walk around and take photos elsewhere.  They have a long driveway tho and a hilly yard. I will have some photos  the next two days of our snow.  It snowed a little on three different days:  Sunday, Monday and Thursday.  It was pretty coming down but too light to roll into a snowman which youngest grandson tried to make and I could not do it either.  I enjoyed shoveling their long driveway tho. . . Monday night and Tuesday, we had a 22 hour power outage.  No fun being in the dark with just candles or sleeping in front of the fireplace with all the grandkids to try to get some warmth but we all survived.  Glad to be home again now.

  1. the kind of event that let us remember how much we depend from electricity..Your family has at least a chimney, how do people who live in a flat? But, when you're safe at home and warm, how pleasant to look at those lovely snowy pictures!

  3. Love the American flag picture, Paulie. Beautiful against the snowy background. It has a Revolutionary feel to it - more stars of course.

    Winter arrived very early for us as well. Lots of rain here in the valley. Our foothill and mountain friends are buried, many with a loss of electricity for several days.

  4. Paulie! You got your snow! Glad you are safely home. I've taken a bit of a break from the computer.
