One More Time

 

Surely this will be the last one.  I'm speaking of snow storms here.  We got 6 inches or so of snow yesterday, but thankfully it didn't cause any power outages like the last one. 
 

I do know we need the moisture.  We had such a dry summer that we lost several of our evergreen trees like the one above that hasn't been cut down yet.  We're waiting for warmer weather for that job.  We need to figure out what to put in their place once they are removed.  Several of these trees serve as a privacy screen between our house and the busy highway in front.

So, we have a white and chilly start to our week.  Spring will undoubtedly get here, but right now it seems to be taking it's sweet time.  Hope you have nice weather to start your week!

Until next time...

  4. Yes it is pretty and it really is moisture but come on now, March is almost over. We only got 2 inches of snow but then we got a day of heavy rain, 2 days of 24 hour drizzle and heavy winds. I'll take the moisture but I so want to get my hands dirty.
    Maybe April??

  8. Love the idea that the moisture is helping our drought situation but I NEED to sit in some sun Under the Oaks! I have to get out of this house!! Sorry about your evergreens. We have lost more Oaks than I thought possible to the drought and last snowstorm and this one has broken the tops off a few of our cedars. The trees have been taking a beating!!

  9. There is some kind of fungus killing a lot of huge evergreen trees. I haven't seen any Norway Spruce dying from it, although a couple of my baby ones succumbed to the drought.

  10. Luckily we were spared from this storm, it stayed south. And yes the moisture is welcome, I counted 5 trees lost in the drought.
    Try Arborvites, they grow really fast.
    The snow does make for pretty pictures.

  17. Well---your snow is gorgeous, Cheryl. Even though all of us want it to be SPRING, I still think that snow is pretty. We have it here too--as you will see when you get to my post today...

  19. Oh no! I don't like that picture. We're supposed to be seeing those Eastern Bluebirds like you have on your sidebar. Aren't they beautiful creatures! Snow go away. Birds, please don't give up and leave.

  26. I am hoping this is it for the snow too. Snow photos are still beautiful though. As are your header photos.

  27. I was so surprised to hear there was another big snow storm coming. It's too late in the year, it seems so out of place.

    In any case, enjoy your last snow if you can, and three cheers for Spring (it's coming, lol, I know it).

  28. Beautiful photos, but I know you're ready for spring! Snow this late in the season is just depressing...

    ReplyDelete
  29. Don't answer that! I see that you did get the storm. And how. Yes, may it be the last one. Enough is enough, especially when Old Man Winter is hanging on long past his season.

  30. The snow we got last weekend has almost all melted, but I heard today that Denver declared drought precutions and water restrictions. It sound slike it will be a long, dry summer. :(
