Snow Country For Old Men

We got about 8 inches of snow this morning!!

*does little snow dance*


To all my buddies up in Edmonton:

SEE?? You can't make fun of me now! I'm not lying on the beach today!! :P


I got up at 6:30 this morning, bundled up, and trudged through the snow to take photos.

I love the look on my face: "Does this toque make me look fat?"


(For those who don't know, a 'toque' rhymes with fluke, and is what we Canadians call a winter hat)

Anyway, these pics are in more or less chronological order. I think I've taken over 160 photos today. Don't want to bore you with all of them, but here are some of the best ones. I think I did pretty well for my camera not being a fancy one. :)





My poor magnolia doesn't know what to think!

The view down my street



You know those daffodils that I was waiting on to bloom? Yeah. They look pretty darn sad today. I feel like the kid in 'A Christmas Story' when he stepped on his glasses...."Pulverized."

My neighbour's house

Looking at my house


I took a walk in the neighbourhood, and through the woods behind my house for these ones:


















I think today I've gotten the best bird shots I've ever taken.



I think this is my favourite shot of the day. I was standing like a statue with my camera to my eye for about half an hour lol. It was worth it!!









Mr. A and Desiree finishing up the snowman I started. I stopped because I wanted to take pics of the birds lol.



AWESOME day. Absolutely brilliant.
