Today's Weather in Your Garden - 59
Wow! Someone left the freezer open!
Wow! I sure felt it leaving work at 11 tonight.
Its 10* now predicting 20-30 mph winds all day and another 3-6 inches of snow.
This is the kind of weather that makes me feel confined so I shop.
Its a beauty. Smaller than I thought.Needs a pedestal
Its hard to say
I'm not an antiques expert but the clues would be its going to be expensive because of where its comming from.
I doubt the Gov. would get involved with cheap repros ,if he actually chose his own garden statuary. Most likely a Landscape designer did the chooseing.
Its my guess French or English
Its stated in the pic.
Artemis Goddess she was the daughter of Zeus Greek by the way.
Google her.
when you forward the pictures there is a title on one of them.

19th century bronze garden ware was also made in this country duering that romantic period.

I think it's too windy to walk, same as yesterday, I only made 3/4 of a mile and the wind in my face was too much. Still trying to decide, I hate to miss a day.
I went out to feed the birds yesterday.SIL put the trunk of the Xmastree perpendicular to the wood pile,under the feeder so small birds and ground feeders could scurry under the branches and eat.The Crows will clean everything up if I dont protect the seed.
They also bully any birds that come.
Its frost bite time Debbi, be careful.
Its just too cold.
Wind is howling, snow is blowing, it's been snowing since thursday afternoon ........need I say more. :(
Pictures later , after I stop whinning.
Not due to end here until tomorrow
here either.......we have at least 2 feet of snow.
Hard to tell how deep it is here on the windy hill.
Lots of buildup on the deck,lawn is barely dusted.
Well I did about 1 1/4 mile which is better than 0 miles. My face is still cold, even with a scarf wrapped around most of it. Some drifting in the road but I don't think we got much yet.
We have snow falling again, but only inches not feet. Another 1-3 inches today for around 4-5 inches total. We do have the cold though, it is 10 degrees now with a good stiff breeze blowing in with gusts from the nnw.
no snow! :( would anybody like me to take some of their snow off their hands?
13 degrees and wind was howling all night.
schickenlady that's a very nice statue!
well we did not get any flurries yesterday.. but the wind is still nuts.. supposed to be bad until 7 tonight.. 18 now.. high of 26
Lynnie, please come get some. We're a little over five feet. It's very light snow, and we have huge drifts. Everything around is shut down. We've been getting plowed/ snowblowed out for about two hours now.
it just started flurrying...it's so windy it's not even landing lol
five feet haha I'd get lost in that
about 3" of new snow. temp. 18° driving winds which makes a tough wind chill factor.
Gusty winds up to 40 mph...high of 26 with wind chill about 4...at least the sun is shining and no snow for us.
21" here and it has stopped for now but the weatherman said it's not done yet. YUCK!
Snowing again. :(
On the other hand...my new metal roof we had installed last August works very well. Almost too well, right before i went out to shovel the deck off, it let go. I could barely open the patio doors as the snow was up to my waist!
so you have 18" of snow there celeste? :)
we got another 2" for a total of about 6" - need to clean everything off and then see how the x-country ski trails are!
Ha ha ha, very funny! We have 21 " ...I measured. But the snow off the roof ontop of the 21 made it very deep for these short legs.
24°, windchill -4°, wind NW 19mph, overcast
- snowing again, at a good rate too!
up to 25° Some light snow throughout the morning--sun for about 5 minutes but it is lighting up the clouds now.
22 here now and the skiing was great!
Snowing still, I can hear the search plane flying over the lake , we have a local kid missing since New Year's Eve. They think he tried to cross the lake w/his sled in an effort to get home sooner. :(

how awful, the poor family.
At this point it would seem like a recovery effort, as opposed to a search & rescue...
I think your right WC but for the family's sake they just aren't saying that yet.
