Mild Winter

It has really been a mild winter this winter, but I want to share with you a couple of photos from my cell phone.  This first one I called Freezing Fog because that is what happens when the fog rolls in and the temperature is in single digits.  It flocks literally everything, as you can see from this photo of a tree close to home.

This next picture shows how little snow we have gotten this year.  You can actually see the different layers which represent different snowfalls since October 1st. You can tell there have not been any really "big" snowfalls, but only come in 4" to 6" spurts.  Of course what you see has already been compressed by the cold. We have only received about 48" of snow this year, but it is compressed down to about 30".
