Tracks.....

We're walk'n.....

....in a winter wonderland today....

Sun is out.....temps will get into the 40's

It's gonna be a great day to dig out the cars!

Walk'n.........Walk'n......Walk'n....

But only until game time!!!

View from the Ice Bowl......

Actually...this is the view from the back door......from the bottom of the drive way.....


"The Ice Bowl"

My poor little light.....it's got a topping of snow.....

View to the left....there use'ta be a gentle downward slope to a dry creek bed....

Ahhhhhh......maybe i'll find it again in Spring.....

Hello.....big-tall fur trees.....

How do you like your coating of snow and ice..??

Note pitch of driveway.......this is about halfway down.....on the curve....

Good Morning......hard woods....!

Having trouble holding up your branches today...?

Almost to the top of the driveway......

Don't think we'll be putting the cars in the garage for a few days.....

And it's still snowing..!!

Stay warm and Enjoy

What's Happen'n.....??

This is what's going on at my house....SNOW....hummmm....go figure!!

I started just before midnight and hasn't quit yet.....

Looks like about 6-8 inches so far...
And the flakes are so big and heavy......i can hear them hitting the trees
......the front porch ...... the cars......the ground.......the dogs ......the cat....

Suppose to stop sometime this afternoon and turn into rain and ice.....
And then.....the dreaded......"Wintery Mix".....

yahhhhhhh!!


Well.......think i'll snuggle in with Max...

Stay warm and Enjoy

Building the Stash......

Oooops......loaded the pictures backward.......oh well!!

Here's the back of my newest table runner....this fabric is named Western Flower and i got it somewhere in Atlanta at last years shop-hop......i like it....it worked preddy-good!!

I think i bought this pattern and fabric...Zippity Doo Dah by Mode..... as a "kit" ...... can't remember from where......might have been Green Fairy Quilts....
i am getting old....and the memory is the first to go....

It's a little bit too Americana for the little cabin in the woods......
I do like the pattern and will make another for me.....
Maybe next snow storm.....

So in the gift stash it goes!

Or maybe send it to the female child.....

Decisions......decisions....decisions.....!

Where's that flipping coin when i need it....???!!

Night Owl...Use'ta Be...??

I use'ta be a night owl...in my old life....

I'd stay up and watch my good buddies Jay......Dave and sometimes Conan....
then drag myself into work the next day and have a hard time understanding why no one else had seen the hottest new starlet on TV last night....it was worth staying up for....

But since moving to the high country.....i've discovered "MORNINGS!!"

The quite.....the solitude.....the time to think......the time to pray......the time to watch and wait for the daily activities to begin......the AM wildlife......the Today Show, GMA and the Early Show.....and fresh hot coffee on the front porch......and how can you argue with a sunrise like that!!

It's worth getting up for!

What is this crapola.....??!!

What is this thing the weather gurus are calling a......wintery mix??!!
It's a combination of snow......sleet.....freezing rain.....and just plain old rain.....!!

...Look there's rain and sleet on the landing...

....there's rain.....sleet and ice on the stairs.....

.....there's ice and snow on the cars....

....and looks like more on the way.....

But .... my real questions is........why did blogger bold and underline the last sentence..???
I didn't request a bold or underline.....

And what's the difference between sleet and freezing rain..??!

Stay warm and enjoy



ps.....bold and underline does not show up on post.......what gives here...???!!!
I'm soooooo confused.......

Unhappy Kitty.....

It's a beautiful sunny......cold......snowy morning in the high country!!

Kitty is sitting at the front door......watching the birds and pawing the glass...like a dog.....
'cause she wants......."OUT!!!"

Sorry....Kitty

In a few minutes we have to stuff you in the cat carrier
and take you down the mountain for your yearly check-up...

We'll make it up to you later....
Maybe a new toy...!!

Kitty...??

Kitty.....?!!

Where are you Miss Kitty...!!!!

Enjoy
