11 Inches?
‘White’ At The End Of The Tunnel It was still coming down quite a bit at 9:30 this morning, but the temperature wasn’t condusive to much more accumulation by that time (it was above freezing again). Okay, so I know we got a load of snow dumped on us on Thursday/Friday, but 11 inches? Seems…

Valentine’s Day!
My Valentine This was taken moments after the Ironic picture. She’s such a little sweetheart. So, I took a day off…and it was magical. Well, sort of. The last 36 hours have really been interesting. Several things have happened that I didn’t expect. But I’ll get to those in a moment. It did snow and…

Minus Eighteen!
Peek-A-Boo! I just think this is an incredibly cute picture. She was reaching for the camera, yet was peeking around at me while doing it. It’s a little after 10PM as I write this, and my thermometer tells me it’s -18.6F. Yeah, that’s pretty cold. 🙂 I have been taking part, as time allows over…

It Snowed!
Please? I absolutely love how Beth managed to get them both to look up at her while getting a cute picture like this. They’re so much fun. So it wasn’t exactly the big storm they were predicting, but we did manage to get about six inches of the stuff on Saturday. Enough to justify getting…

There’s A Storm A-Brewing!
Nice Tail I like how this picture turned out, even though Felix’s tail is in the frame (since he so nicely walked through). So it looks like this weekend will be the first real snowstorm of the season. I can’t wait, really! I’m looking forward to it, right down to stocking up on some things.…

Brrr!
Winding Along In The Distance This is one of my favorite shots of the day. I like how the few remaining colored leaves frame the exposed water in this picture. Sacred Heart Creek, Renville County, Minnesota So it got really pretty cold this evening. We went from a high of about 42 here this afternoon…

Well, THAT Snow Event Is Over
So before I get too far into this post, I should note that I found the 10PM weather report from Tuesday night’s newscast (click the link). In it (about half way through) is the mention of the 8.5″ in Donnelly. Oddly enough, in today’s Morris paper, there was also the mention of 8.5″ by the…

Snowy April Day!
So it’s been a pretty long day today. At home. It was snowing reasonably well when I went to bed last night, and by the morning we definitely had some snow on the ground. According to the National Weather Service, there was 6.5 inches of snow in Donnelly at some point in time around 7:15AM.…

Mid-Afternoon Rambings
So we had some snow and wind overnight. I think we actually got around 4 inches of the stuff; in some places I noticed drifts a good 6-8 inches deep (when I went out at 10 to get the mail). I have to say that I’m a bit disappointed thus far with the snow event.…

Wednesday Evening Thoughts
It’s been pretty quiet this afternoon/evening, but I write most of that off on the impending winter storm. Unlike the last one, this might actually turn out to be the Great White Wall of Death. Already it’s more impressive than the last one…and we’re only a few hours into it. Beth got out of school…
