Let it Snow...

And it did!

It started snowing late in the afternoon on Christmas day and it snowed all through the night.

We woke up this morning to lots of snow!

It snowed off and on all day and there are about seven inches on the ground as of right now.

We are under a storm watch until tomorrow morning!

We haven't had a snow like this in three years or so.

I grabbed my camera this afternoon and took a little walk around the house to see what I could see.

A little snow makes lends a magical touch to the ordinary things we see every day.

Green glass insulators seem much more interesting nestled in a bit of snow.

 A chilly fireside setting.

 Morgan the rooster standing guard over his house. 

The chickens are less them impressed with the snow!

 Our six little trees.

This is the first heavy snow fall for them.

 A few leaves still clingto the small branches of the trees.

 Even the tumbleweeds seem more interesting covered with snow.

 Tractor tires sit idle in winter collecting winter designs.

 Tracks line the drive way of those who have traveled in and out.

 The view that is directly out our front door.

It was starting to snow again when I took this shot.

"The first fall of snow is not only an event, it is a magical event. You go to bed in one kind of a world and wake up in another quit different, and if this is not enchantment then where is it to be found."
