Even Better than Ice is Snow

Two little visitors from San Diego, California were having the best time playing with chunks of ice along the greenbelt while their mother waited patiently.  

 Our free play got even better as we received 6" of new snow the next day.  Where are the little visitors?? Do they have mittens??

 
 
 Doc has been feeding the squirrels; I bet they stay at our house this Spring.

Our street got one snow plow and it sure makes a difference!  Ice is melting.

Very Treacherous

This is the parking lot at SOC!!!  Dangerous!!!

 
 
 
We are still snow packed but today it got up to 46!!! And sunny!!!  Slowly but surely our 17" of snow is melting.

Record Snowfall

 
 
 
 
We awoke to 11 inches of snow and it continues to snow heavily until 2:00 PM.  Regis, the City of Westminster, and SOC are all closed, along with many other places.  Fun!!!! Snow Day!!!

Hygge Morning

 
 
 
We will continue to receive light snow for the next 12 hours.  Yeah! We love snow!

Knitting, Gift!

There were eight of us women at Panera yesterday, carrying sticks and string. FUN

At the 9 AM mass, a parishioner offered the people in the pews around her, a bag of chocolate bottles from which we could choose one.  The priest and deacon also received the surprise gift!!

Melted Snow, Poor Ladybug

This is all that's left of our recent snow.

Ice fills the gutter, and trapped a helpless little ladybug.

Snow

 Sunday night started with a thin layer of ice and then two inches of snow.

 
 
Doc borrowed the awd Forester to get to work and I took a walk!

Past Weekend

 It was 77 on Saturday and 70 degrees on Sunday with 11% humidity.

Doc took care of all the leaves!!! Gone! They filled the large trash can!

Snow, Knitting, Sewing, Walking

 This was on Monday; snow melts quickly at our altitude and dry climate.

 This is an adorable quilt project that was packed in a Thimbleberries, Inc. tin!

 Not much snow is left this morning, Wednesday.

 
Fun! We have the best time knitting and chatting. 

Dolls, Spooks, Knitting, Snow Melt

 A very generous lady has shared her collection; these 4 have joined my family of dolls.

 Grandchildren are the cutest Halloween spooks!  So is our grown son!!!

 

 Here are three more cuties!

 Our usual knitting gathering was postponeddue to ice and snow. Worth the wait!!

 
 
 Snow is trying to melt but it will take a few more days to rid us of 14" of snow!

It's beautiful and we do love snow!!
