9.5 Inches of Snow
















The snow started falling at 2pm on Saturday. There was a time overnight when the snow stopped but it started up again around 8am Sunday morning and kept at it all day long.
We all bundled up and ventured out yesterday. Eleeyse fell forward just as she stepped of the deck and did a face plant in the snow. She just stayed there, not moving and said, "I can't get up!" When I got her up she made a very nice "reverse" snow angel print.
Our local covey of quail came for a visit...that is until Bill scared them away! On accident...he thought they had all flown away already. Its neat to see all of their little prints all over the yard.
We took the quad down to the creek. With the weight of all the snow on all branches we couldn't get all the way to the bridge but we could peer between them all. Bill had gone out on saturday and found even more trees down. I think we have enough down firewood for a few more years.
