... is what it is now at about 3:30 PM MDT... (for some reason I cannot make the img code work for the second picture...a problem I seem to be having frequently with photobucket. Anyone have any idea how I can get this to post?)

With me living in Los Angeles, I think it's beautiful. You might not think so. ;D

It's beautiful, but it gets old after a while. Cheer up, summers coming.

And I complained about the couple inches we got here last week. ::)

did all this snow fall on top of blooming daffodils or is that standard weather for this time of year in your area?

I picked 17 ticks,mostly tiny, off of my husband last night. I know it is no comfort. I guess we have to take what comes and spring will come.

Wow. I don't know whether to congratulate you on the beauty or commiserate with you on the length of your winter. Wow.


My husband has a construction company. He laid blacktop while it snowed in May a few years back. He was not pleased. It is hard to have a really long winter.

I am going to stop fussing about our weather. Right now.

And it's still coming down like nuts right now....

I know you are in Mt.. I'm below you in S.E. Id we have been getting the southern end of the storm. Snow, rain, hail, sleet, and then it will tease us, the sun comes out for a few minutes and then it all starts again. Don't you just love spring in the Mountains.

We have been snowbound for two days here. Spent some time in the hot tub, worked on the bedding on a friends rifle, watched the news and lots of NCIS. The paper boy has let us down. :'( The drift behind my truck is chin high, so the morning will be spent on the tractor to try to get momma off to work. (may take a few hours)Thank God we had no cattle to worry about. The only things moving were tractors trying to get feed out.

It has been a real long winter here, nice for photo ops but we are ready for spring.

I don't know....my daffodils and tulips are just coming into their glory, but I'd almost rather have your weather!

We've had rain eight days out of the last ten. The creeks are full, the ditches are full, and my basement is full.

The whole house smells like wet, and I have forty people coming here Sunday.

At least I can shovel snow. Can't do much with the water.

Just under 4000. And we are on the steppes...not in the mountains.
