Snow pictures

About that special picture of Eli...

Does he look rotten or what?

I sent a few snow pictures to Andee and Todd to show them the amount of snow we got here. Seems they got more rain than snow. They have moved back to NC but are in a county further east.

Anyhow, from one of the pictures, Andee zoomed in on Eli and came up with this sweet picture. Andee thinks the caption should be,

"I want to be rotten, but I'm just way too sweet"

Eli loved the snow!

and here's a few more snow pictures...

We rarely get snow in December, and certainly never this much!

The old bird house looks like a face.

Little Weetie struggled to run through the deep snow.

Snow made the raggedy old chicken wire fence prettier, 

 and the little duck pen down near the pond.

Cedar limbs heavy with snow hang low over the dam.

Just a few more, I promise...

Whew! Way too many pictures, I know. It was just so pretty!

The beauty of today was that big warm sun in the sky and the snow beginning to melt away! As beautiful as this snow was that first day, you just can't beat a warm sunny summer day. 

Thank you for looking.

Love,

Henny

What a snow storm this turned out to be!

But first, I had never given a thought to kitty cats eating those silver icicles off a Christmas tree. Thankfully, neither of our cats have ever bothered the tree, but I will be watching them closely. Thank you Deb, and others too, who mentioned this in their comment.

A few days ago, Granny Marigold asked about the bunny rabbits, so I was working on a Bunny post.  Wanted to show you how I had added tarps to the bunny lot...



Yep, I did good! Now the bunnies would be protected from the cold winter wind.

The bunnies would get the early morning sun through the open front and a little late afternoon sun from the one open side. It would be cozy.

Then we hear the local weather report...Snow storm! Beginning Saturday night! Up to six inches predicted for us (we got eight inches!) with snow all day Sunday and wind gusts up to 35 mph. Good grief!

So, I bundled up again and headed back down to the bunny lot with another tarp to cover the other side. Only the door end of the lot was left uncovered. Now the bun buns surely would be cozy through the storm

Early Sunday morning Bunny Village looked fine, even with a covering of snow. All four bunnies were safe inside.

But the next time I checked...

Oh no! One side of the canvas top, filled with heavy wet snow had fallen in. The bunnies were fine, but what a wet soggy mess their sweet little village has become. Poppy has already ordered a new canvas top. Hopefully it will get here quick!!

Thankfully each of the bunnies has their own box filled with hay and protection from the weather.

"Penny" and her son, "Chief, Son of Bun".

Messy Mr. "Bun Bun"

One of these days I hope to have a pretty little house for each bunny. I keep check on Craigslist. For now though, the old cages will do. Poppy says these rabbits eat better than we do. :( 

Thank you to two new followers, "Changes in the Wind" and "Phoebe's World. I appreciate your friendship.

Thank you Granny Marigold for asking about the bunnies.

Well I wanted to finish up this bunny post, but tomorrow, hopefully, I will be back with "snow pictures"!! Bet you can't wait!! :) There is a really special picture of Eli.  

Love,
Henny
