I took these where I'm house sitting at.... But, not for much longer, I'm tired of plowing the driveway everyday, so Shadow (the resident dog) is coming to my place for a while as I don't usually need anything more than a shovel to get out of my driveway.
Chuck, the neighbor, and I plowing the driveway with tractos. Thank goodness for the help.
neighbors mail box. I used the tractor to go get the mail.... why not!!
icicles
there's a jm under there, really. I feel sorry for it.
These I took at my place yesterday.
rhody ebony pearl, but not my favorite picture of it.
berries!
My cercis forest pansy trying to hold onto some leaves, not really sure why though.
the last of them.
That's some awesome snow, RC!!
When ours is all over, we'll get outside to take some of the snow in this neck of the woods.
lol, I'll surely let you have it!!! People here don't want to pay taxes for having many snow plows and sanders around, so when there is this much snow, nobody get's out and to work unless someone who has a tractor does the county or city rd! It's 12:45 pm and the snow plow just went by for the one and only time that it will today, which means that when I get the driveway finished, I can finally go to work today.
Here's a picture of the rd. up here just after the plow went by yesterday. Notice the rd. sign that says 40 mph :-p
there about 300 people that live at the top of that rd. that I'm coming down.
Thanks Robin, Pat and Shelly. Patches is my sweetie.She's very lovable.
Nice picture, Shelly. We were approaching that much snow, but now it's raining. It's supposed to freeze tonight and get very windy. Not a good combo. I don't know if the snow will start up again or just stop. I'm sure we'll get a lot of broken branches with the weight of all that wet snow. Glad I got all that packed stuff shoveled out of the driveway before it ices over. I have to do an overnight shift tonight, too. I hope the roads aren't too bad when I leave.

What 40 MPH sign?
^_^
lol...
Good luck with all of that Karen. I hope the roads are Ok when you go to work.
Have been watching Weather Channel, & have noticed all the snow out your way, Shelley---is it unusual for this time of year? Hope you can put your shrub back together again---my rhodos are pretty much buried---except for the tall ones, & I hope they'll be OK. As I was shoveling out the back patio for the 3rd time last evening, here was a beautiful sky scene---I guess it makes winter bearable!
Here's another view.
The diversity of the weather in this small state never fails to amaze me! My sky was still dumping snow last night at sunset, and then it started snowing again at 10 pm! Just in time to make my drive home from work at 11pm very dicey....obviously, I made it. Beautiful pics Robin!

Pretty road side scene to look at but not so much fun to drive through.
We got the rain at the tail end here too, now it's just frozen solid on everything. It is a good thing it is pretty and we have those nice sunsets to look at otherwise it would be a very long bleak winter.
Shelly, roads were pretty good last night, considering. Parking lots were very icy, especially this morning.
Robin, those sunset shots are pretty.
