It Snowed!

While I was out early in the evening, it snowed where I live. Hardly enough to count most places, maybe four inches of wet but fluffy snow lying all over the deserty landscape.

When I got home, I came in through the carport and thought it would be funny to see my dog's reaction to snow. She loves rain and has been pestering me the last couple of days because I won't take her for a walk in the rain.

So tonight, I came in the back door and called the dog with me as I went out the front door. The snow lay all around the front patio, like white frosting. The air was crisp and clean like it is after a snowfall -- also cold.

The dog would not come outside. :) She stood in the doorway and danced around, stood on her hind legs a moment (she's a minipoo, they do that), then raced down the hallway to come back and yip at me and race away again. LOL.

I decided she had probably seen snow before and didn't like it. :)

Hugs,
Erin

Erin, if you want ...

we have lots of snow here and mush more on the way. That is "much more" to be correct but when it starts to melt ...

Please come and take all you want.

White Christmas

Here in southwestern Germany we had some snow during the last weeks, but the weather still hasn't decided if we will get white Christmas this year :-)

Strange weather

You, Las Vegas, and even New Orleans have gotten snow so far. Here in the sunny South, the weather has been warm enough for some of the flowers to start blossoming. That's not good at all because it's not even Winter yet. When it turn colds again a lot of plants are going to be in a hurt. On the other hand it's a good way to trim down the bug population.

hugs!

PS: John my wife is from Idaho and says she has seen all the snow she'll ever want to see, so we won't be taking you up on your kind offer to give us some of your snow.

It snows this low on the mountain (2500 feet, 750 m.) about one year in three so the dog is old enough to have seen it the last time it snowed here which was two years ago. But since this is the southern edge of the mountain, it never lasts long. It's actually been warmer since the snow, getting into the high forties F, about 7-9 C.

As for bugs, the snow apparently persuaded a colony of ants that indoors was the place to be.

It's all because of global warming

Where I live, it hasn't snowed for thirty years and I know it's because all of us humans drive cars. If it wasn't for that we would have snow every year, RIGHT. Face it the planet has been cooling for the last ten years and now even the desert is getting snow. Maybe in the next ten years we might also, Arecee
