First Snow
It snowed even earlier than last year. Now around here it’s not unusual to get snow before Halloween but it is for it to stick around for days. The only problem I had with the early snow was it knocked out my electricity for over 20 hours. Even so I can’t deny it was a beautiful sight.
It looks good now but by tomorrow it should melt and expose the leaves I never got around to raking.
And this is one of the few times I’ll post photos of my own yard. It’s usually too messy to show off.
One tree covered in snow was a picture I couldn’t resist taking. But another inspired a WTF moment. And I don’t mean Winter Time Fun. I’m going to convert it to heat and that means I’m going to have to do some work. Nice to get more wood for the stove but I’d rather burn the furniture.
Many trees had not shed all their leaves and fell prey to the heavy snow. That was the reason we lost power. Besides losing my beautiful tree in the yard a number of others took out a section of power lines down the road.
Driving down the road was nice - plenty of snow ‘tunnels’ were formed and it was a real winter wonderland.
Further down the road the tunnel opened up and I pulled over because I heard honking.
I’m not quite ready to to use any of these images as desktop wallpaper but I did make some up. The linked images go to a larger size (1024 x 768) so feel free to use them if you want.
