Yikes! It's -6 right now, and Blessed be I don't have to go out! In fact...I stood in the living room looking out to the front yard to take these pictures!! (smiling) Waaaay to cold for me...and my dog. This morning poor little Freeway was in and out so fast, I barely had time to shut the door! In some places at the driveway, the snow is over 4 feet! Welcome to Iowa!! My hubby is called out a lot with different emergencies, and he hasn't had time to scrape off the driveway with his skid steer. Our wonderful neighbor across the street, Jason, has come over every snow day for the past week and cleaned it off!! God Bless him!! My hubby does their drive when he's home. What a great neighborhood. I looked out the other day, and my next door neighbor was blowing the end strip of our driveway where the snowplow left a deposit! Wonderful people here in Iowa, we are so blessed. I will take more pictures today...later...when it's above 0! Hang in there friends in the East...we'll make it through this winter!!
I almost forgot! Yesterday, Freeway was just barking to beat the band..I looked out to see what was going on-there was a magnificent Bald Eagle just flying around the yard, then landing in the trees out front, then flying some more. It was a sight to behold! I ran around trying to locate my camera, as it is never where I think it should be...and by the time I returned to the window, the eagle was in flight over the trees. Darn! It is spectacular to see them up close, it always surprises me how large they are!! Honest to Pete...it would have darkened the sun....if we had any sun..that is... Blessings~
