Wanna Be a Steader!

It's COLD and It's Getting COLDER!!!

I've been watching the wonderful winter snow show outside our windows.  My computer is right next to a set of floor-to-ceiling-wall-to-wall windows so I can watch all that beautiful, fluffy, white stuff come tumbling down.  It's beautiful.

It is 11:43a.m. right now and it is about 18 degrees and the temps will fall into the 0's tonight w/the high being around 6 degrees tomorrow.  And the snow is to continue to about 5" - which I THINK we have now! 

Here are some pics that I took about an hour ago - there's AT LEAST another inch since then...

This is looking across the road in front of our home.  This neighbor's home sits waaaaaaaaay back off the road and this is also where deer, fox and coyotes come up to the road in morning and evenings.

For those of you who read an entry from a few weeks ago where I told you that we took down that HUGE Blue Spruce Pine...here's how the front looks now.  Now we can actually SEE out of our front windows!  Yea!  Anyway, as I said, these pics were taken about an hour ago and NOW the snow is up to the top of the porch and absolutely no grass is showing.  So...until Maggie goes outside, it's lovely. 

Here you can see down our looong driveway.  It even goes back another 25' behind that little shed at the end of the drive.  Since we are JUST inside our little town's limits we have a nice big lot.  Since the original part of our house was built 170+ years ago and our lot is so big, I wonder if our house had actually not been inside the original town line...hmmm...something to investigate.

Well, I just found out that the family wants me to make Taco Soup for supper, so I'm going to have to dig the car out and run to the store for a couple of items before it gets any deeper. 

Stay warm!

Beautiful...Just beautiful

Thank you for shaing the pictrues of your winter wonderland with all of us. *smile* The front of your home really does look different without the tree there. That is amazing.
Have a safe trip to town and back home again. Winter blessings.-me-(Mommy of two little blessings)

I love the pictures of the snow falling around your home, watching the snow fall is one of my favorite things; I just wish the cold temperatures didn’t have to come along with the snow! Keep warm!

I just wanted to stop by to check on you. I sure hope you're feeling better! We just started with sore throats last night. Is it spring yet?
