Snow falls

What a snowstorm. It began when the thermometer read 0, and then it stuck to everything. It was -2 in the a.m. and the snow fell early Thursday morning.
For comparison!

Friday morning we've a bit of a cold spell, with another storm on the way.

Out the kitchen window.


The buck had snow clinging to his big antlers. There was more, but I decided to finish my coffee in my easy chair first.

First task was the driveway. No worries. When I made it down to the road, I realized someone had gone into the ditch! Whoopsie. Many drive way too fast around this corner, I have to turn my back as I'm shoveling. I walked down.



Down to the beautiful forest to fetch the memory cards. I tried some artistic photos. This was the best I could do!



The poor trailcams!



Back indoors, these two, feeling under the weather, were in the spare room. JB's cough is worse. We take turns visiting her in the recovery room, as she heals from her spaying. Her stitches look good.
Cinn continues to put the sin in Cinnamon. He's a spicy, hot to trot tomboy, and jumping his sisters' bones. It's tough isolating them, but important. Once she is healed up, we'll be OK.



My theory is, JB overdid it Tuesday, doing the end of the driveway. I did it Thursday, yesterday, in anticipation of our cold spell. We both like shovelling. It's good exercise.



I had lunch, and went out to tackle the front sidewalk. The feeders were quite covered. I did NOT get any snow down my sleeves this time.



Look at my beautiful neck warmer, Jean!



In the afternoon, there was a break in the clouds. So good to see that blue sky. Even for a short while.

Annabelle took the prime spot.
