The Start of the Snow 1-21-16. The sky is still blue.
The blue sky is still showing.
Sorry about the fence post. I cropped it so you could see the cow better
The Skies are clouding up...big snow on its way.
The snow is coming down. This is the creek in front of the house. 1-22-16
A few hoodoos are left from the summer and fall.

Now, here is how an old lady makes a Snow Genie ::-)
These were taken this morning by Buddy. It snowed all day yesterday, all last night,
and all morning today. Now it seems to have moved on...thank goodness.
I will post photos of the barn tomorrow for Tom’s Barn Collective.
These were taken today - 1-23-1

(I am already there, and I am 76.)
that was five years ago. I am now five years older.
I DID IT! WOO HOO!
With multiple ayers of SmartWool long john bottoms, 3 tops plus the parka,2 hats
and heavy duty boots with two pair of wool socks...
I was warm.
How do I get out of this cold stuff?
OK, Stupid....CRAWL to the walkway Buddy shoveled.
I finally made it! Thanks for all the help Jack.
The broom handle saved my life. I was able to pull up.
Bud was long gone shoveling The Bridge to Somewhere
so was nowhere around to bail me out of a rock and a snowy place.

The snow looks incredible - but I'm glad we didn't get any! ;-)
ReplyDeleteThat looks like such fun! Struggling back up is the WORST part of lying down!
ReplyDeleteLove your black and white of the snowy creek.
Hello Genie, love the cute cow and your doggie. We are still having snow 18 inches or more now. I would have trouble getting back up after making the snow angel. Thank you for linking up and sharing your post. Have a happy weekend!
ReplyDeleteAlways a kid!
ReplyDeleteGo Genie Go! You are my hero and inspiration!
ReplyDeleteIf everyone would be as you, there would be no sorrow in the world!
ReplyDeleteHerzlich Pippa

ReplyDeleteat 76 you are wonderful to be able to get up from the snow!!! Lovely series of fun shots
ReplyDeleteHi Genie
ReplyDeleteBeautiful snow photos!!
I admire you, that you're dropping here in this snow - great.
Maybe it's Kneippen, a cure of Father Kneipp, cold should be very healthy
Happy Sunday to you.

Ha, ha, you had a lot of fun, feeling like 6 years old again!
ReplyDelete:)Beautiful post.
ReplyDeleteAll the best!
You have such a lovely positive attitude, Genie! You are having fun in the snow!
ReplyDeleteOh my goodness! That snow almost covered you up!
ReplyDeleteFun captures! I love the view of the creek.
ReplyDeleteI would not have been brave enough to get down...and if I had, I would for sure have made Roger stay near. What I want to know is what did Eloise have to say? And did she get a lot of snow?
ReplyDeleteI love that you aren't afraid to indulge in "childish play" and the fact that you are old enough to read fairy tales again. I'm the same age as you but I don't think I ever outgrew them -- (whatever that says about me.) I might even be able to make a snow angel if I were dressed as warm as you were. Maybe. Fun post.
ReplyDeleteBeautiful snowy images. It looks like you had a lot of fun playing in the snow!
