First Snow

Up here in the NE corner of Wyoming winter can start quite early .. in fact it usually snows the first time in September .. kinda late this year …

thought I’d snap a pic to share with you … as you can see it’s still green under that white and the snow borders on rain today … suppose to snow for the next few days .. heavier at night …

first snows are nice (smile) .. just don’t ask me what I think about snow when January rolls around .. in fact we could even have a blizzard in April … been told (never seen it myself) that it’s even snowed on the 5th of July!! ...

for anyone interested trees are precious in NE Wyoming .. only reason we have them is that they were planted as a windbreak on the original homestead and are over 60 years old! they’re Siberian Elms… and the bench used to by my couch from the now turned into a storage shed trailer .. should have painted or sealed it this summer .. oh well .. maybe next year (grin) ...

    it’s 33F out right now .. brrr .. but nice and toasty inside … don’t have central heat in my room but I use what’s called a oil filled electric radiator heater .. (smile) .. already have my well padded and warm slippers on (smile) and am wearing a zipped hooded shirt shirt over my jammies (grin) .. it’s going down in the 20’s tonite with more snow (oh joy -not really – grin) ...

    am hoping we’ll get a little indian summer before winter slams in but I’m not holding my breath for that (grin) ...

    The middle of Spring over here in Aussie.
    Today in Melbourne we are having clear blue skies
    with a temp of 26 deg. cel. that’s about 80 deg.F

    Far away in another land
    Where snow has not yet been
    There is an owl who thinks of you
    in your Winter Wonderland screen.
    LD
    ( thats the best I could do )
