    Wow Mark, I think this is the first time I saw you post pics! Looks like a nice place you have there.
    I love a good snowstorm. Just the way it transforms the landscape, it's kind of magical.

    Very mild winter here so far as snow has almost all gone to the south. Great pictures!

    AND its exactly what i did....i stayed in the shop..with some Box Car Willie..and piddled on the 65 almost all day..felt good to let go of the stress and enjoy getting dirty, instead of cold wet and sick....

    i have a handyman thats older and not really a tow the line kinda guy..he has his own company and dug me out for 45 bux and 2 cups of coffee..and he loved it..i lost 3 trees..shame they where big and really cast a lot of shade..i'm going to miss them, a lot...prob 50+ years old and one was prob 2x that..

    probably the most beautiful snows ive seen in decades...every tree and branch has snow..yesterday we had about an hour of sun, and it was all sparkly and shiney..and was very cool..i forgot to take a pic i was so busy...

    its supposed to be foggy for the next 3 days, but warm..so it will go quickly...just in time for the storm coming Wed thru Saturday....
