Same fence, but in the sun.

I went back the following morning to take a photo of the snow on the fence. Still peculiar how the snow “stacked up.”

Stacked snow…

This time around the snow fell in an odd manner… I’ve never seen it do this before. Have you?

Snow… again

It appears that we’re in for another doozy of a storm. That’s okay. I’ll just have more opportunities to take more snow photos. Stay tuned…

A hike in the warm sunshine…

Today the boys and I enjoyed a hike in the warm sunshine. After the sub-freezing temperatures earlier this month, I was thrilled to see the predicted temps of low 50s today.

We ran across this pawprint in the bits of snow along the trail.

This cat is happy.

Dave, one of our two rescue cats, loves it when we have a fire in the woodstove. He’s like a lump of fur… a lump of fur with the cutest little pink nose.

A December Snow

As you may have heard by now, the NC mountains were hit by an early snowstorm. Accumulations ranged from about 4 inches to 24 inches! We fell somewhere in the middle.

Reflections on the lake

Earlier this week I went on a hike on a particularly foggy morning. This scene caught my eye with all the reflections on the lake. These photos are the same, but I flipped one of them. Which one?
