In Dec.1963 it snowed 8 inches. I was living here then and I was 3 months past my 11th birthday but I do not remember this event.
Yesterday morning at 6:00 A.M. this beautiful sunrise gave no hint of what was to come but we'd been hearing about it for a week.............
5-9 inches! No Way! Not here ! When it snows, which is rare, it is usually 1-2 inches but mostly less than that..........
I looked at this sky thinking in 12 hours we will be under a Winter Storm Warning.........
Around 4:00 P.M. these clouds had me thinking, Snow Streaks?
We battened down the hatches, put out hay, cranked up the greenhouse heater and filled 5 bird feeder's. At 6:00 A.M this morning the birds were in a frenzy at all the feeders and there was about 1-2 inches of snow............
You guys hurry up! It's my turn said; the little fellow!
Excuse me, we are on the fence...waiting our turn........except for the Cardinal who preferred the bent branch of the Oleander.
All by myself......at a seed buffet............
This Gardenia is bowing...............
The pines and popcorn trees carry the weight...........
Heavy wet snow is falling on the pond..........
I'm in a world of beauty on this early morning...........
St. Francis must be freezing...........I covered the bird bath so that when it quits I can fill it with bird seed...
It is supposed to snow until about 2:00 P.M which I think may end up leaving us with about 6 inches.........
Looking out on the back pasture........
This Oleander is in the front...........
That's another Gardenia behind St. Francis...........
Some of the pines on the front..........as I said........it's snowing in the pines!
Birds use the limbs to pearch on...
This waiting is for the birds.........huh?
A snow covered Crape Myrtle...........
Dinner on the ground............... :)
It's getting heavy eeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee!
I'll have the end results this weekend! Stay warm, dry and read a good book why don't cha?
