Deep Freeze

It is not as cold as some places, but -35 wind chill is enough for now. Glad we don't have to be outside.

 
Our pines are beautiful with all the snow on them. We have about 15" of snow far deeper than my boots are tall. I'll have to figure something else out to go walk around. Maybe big garbage bags?


 
Thanks to my Christmas present from our kids, I was able to get a good picture of one of our Cardinals. We have at least 4 males, but they are so skiddish any movement and they are gone.

 
 
Anyone up for some barbecue? It is buried in there somewhere. I guess we won't be barbecueing for a couple days at least. ;)
 
We haven't lost our power so far, so it has been a great time to stay cozy in the house. Our neighbor came and plowed our driveway on Sunday. It sure did look nice until the wind picked up and it all blew back. So, we are still snowed in. Need a snowplow!!
 
Wilson doesn't stay out any longer than he absolutely has to. He starts limping if he is out longer than a few seconds right now. Miss Suzi Q doesn't like it either unless, of course, she can chase a squirrel. Then all bets are off. It is so deep neither the squirrel nor Suzi can move very fast. Supposed to have a heat wave this weekend. It might get up to 30 deg. out.
