That sure is beautiful - no fun to get around in though.
Funny how all you south of here are getting ice & snow - and up here in WI we haven't had snow for about a month! Plowing helps get us through the winter, so feel free to send some up this way! :lol:

Oh my. It's going to miss us here, thank goodness. Once in the mid-60s we had a big ice storm (I was a kid who got out of school for a week so it was fun) and a big one in the late 70s where there were some people without power for 3 weeks. Hope none of you have extended power outages. That's just not fun after the first hour.

It's gorgeous. It would be even more beautiful if there had already been snow on the ground. How I miss that kind of weather!

Marsye, you take great photos.

It is beautiful! But somehow I am glad that I am in Southern California and it will be 70 today.

Well, it has warmed up to 11degrees...we will get a bit of lake effect snow tonight and tomorrow...
Keep warm and safe, to all my friends in Tenn., NorthCarolina, and all the other areas that are going to be hit with this nasty storm...
Ninnie, you can always send Mortimer out for more wood....

hehehe Cleveland is looking pretty good right now. Just stay safe and warm.

Oh, I hate ice that knocks out power and makes it difficult to drive. Snow is much more forgiving.

We are expecting the same system you have in AR right now tonight in VA. Predicting 7-12 inches of snow. hope to be out of school for a week. LOL
