Then the clock would be as frozen as the icicles hanging off our roof.
Icicles!!! I've never lived under a roof with icicles before! Here in the foothills of California, we see snow once maybe twice a year, and when it does fall, it rarely sticks for more than a few hours. But this snow has stuck around all week.
We love it. Can't get enough of it. We're in and out of our snow gear from sun up til sun down.
Thank goodness for warm boots, wool socks, and hand-me-down snow gloves from our big cousins.
Thank goodness for grandpa's old snow shovel.
Thank goodness for a gas dryer, because this clothesline is out of commission.
Thank goodness for snow. We will miss you when you're gone, but we're so glad you stayed so long.
(And yes, I took many, many pictures of the snow.)
Stunning pictures molly - stunning - I am glad you took lots of pictures. I forwarded the RSS feed of your post to Chris as I knew he'd love to see them. Beautiful.
ReplyDeletebeautiful snow pictures! that last one is especially breathtaking. All we've had here is flurries and skiffs, but I'm keeping my fingers crossed for more!
ReplyDeleteThat's how it is here where I live too! We hardly ever have ice-cycles!Especially not this early in the Winter season, but I ain't complaining! I love your red berry picture.
ReplyDeleteYay!! It's all boots, snowboard, jackets, gloves etc. etc. all over the place here, too! : )
ReplyDeletethose pictures are gorgeous! but we always have snow and I don't like it any better after seeing your pretty photos. it's nice to see the novelty of it though...
ReplyDeleteI am enjoying it, too. The drive up 49 is beautiful and the kids school... oh, I love it!
ReplyDeleteGorgeous...oh how I'd love to have some snow!
ReplyDeleteBEAUTIFUL! Sure wish I could have come up this week. Boohoo! Just having a little pity party. Guess because it's been a tough week at work. Can't wait for the weekend and the rain, then I can sit in front of the fire and knit. Hooray. I feel better already!
ReplyDeleteLOVE the shot of the boots at the door. Made me feel good. :)
ReplyDeleteEnjoy those icicles while you can! One of many things I miss about the Midwest...
ReplyDeleteNothing quite like the magic of snow! So glad you're getting more that just a glimpse this year! xox
ReplyDeleteI love your new banner : )
ReplyDeleteI was also out taking photos of the snow today. Although once we get snow it tends to snow every single day. I am glad you are able to enjoy it!
Maybe more this weekend?? We are hoping for more rain, so cool that you guys got snow...make a snow angel for me!!
ReplyDelete:)
Nice shots. Glad you're enjoying it while it lasts.
ReplyDeleteLove this last photo!!
ReplyDeleteWe're in California's deepest south ... though there's no snow it seems cooler than normal and boots are on our feet, too!
We're enjoying our dump today with snowdays all around. Hubby got to try out his new blower this morning and I'm staying in flannel as long as possible!!
ReplyDeleteYour photographs are beautiful! We have snow FOREVER here, but after reading your post I have a new appreciation of its beauty. Have a great weekend and enjoy the snow while it lasts!
ReplyDeleteSo beautiful! That's great that you're getting to enjoy the snow:)
ReplyDeleteWhat bautiful pictures. We so rarely get snow around here, that I grab my camera and take way too many pictures also, sometimes. Great job. Love the red berries.
ReplyDeleteNext time I need a fix of winter I'll know to come back and check this day's post. The photographs are awesome. Thanks for hanging out in the cold to get the best shots. Cheers ~ Conny
ReplyDeleteSo beautiful! And so much fun. Can you believe we had snow in Oakland, too? We even had a snowball fight and wandered around the neighborhood in amazement. I love the header photo--the way the snow is clinging to the wire and sitting on the top of the wood fence. I'll miss the Dr. Simmons, though.
ReplyDeleteGorgeous photos...just gorgeous! I absolutely LOVE the last one! :)
ReplyDeleteWe 15+ inches of the white stuff here...:-D
Welcome to winter :)
ReplyDeleteSo hard to believe that you are just a few hours from us. I'm envious! We didn't even make it up the hill to see the snow here in Oakland that Susan mentioned!
ReplyDeleteAh well, one of the things I love about blogging is getting to live vicariously through others. Especially when they take gorgeous photos like you do.
Congrats on the snow! And a great chance to photograph a new-ish environment!
ReplyDeletewhat great pictures and so fun that you can enjoy snow for a little while.
