Time for a Count......


Well.......here we are mid-way thru August and it's time for a bead Count....
If you remember this is the "ole mountain women" system of predicting the snow falls for the coming winter season......you determine this by observing the "fogs" of August.....

Blue beads for heavy fog and green beads for light fog.....Hummmmmmm


As you can see ....we've got...
5 blue beads and 7 green beads....and....it's only August 15th.....!!

Winter's not looking so good.....!!??

Enjoy

  4. I really like this. I can't wait to hear 'YOUR prediction'.
    Looking forward to comparing it to the actual winter.

  5. It looks like your generator may get used again. Oh dear, I'm not ready to think about winter. The great thing is I won't have to drive to work in it all this year. But just like the squirrels do, I think I'll stock up and be ready to hunker down.

  6. I could use a good winter about now. Can you cheat and add a few more beads to the jar? :)
