Flakey


Spoiled having Olympics to watch in the early am the past few weeks- Soon it'll be back to dodging infomercials after work. I think that Snow-board Cross was a crazy sport! First time I ever saw it this round- after hearing it's been there 15 years now.

 I had to grab a pic of MapleBeard's snow-plastered face before shoveling during the last blizzard. The flash reflected circles off the moving snowflakes. The yellow one is a streetlamp. I do most of my shoveling after dark, usually about 3 am.
I finally finished shoveling the side path n sawing off the broken tree branch leaning on the house just today, because it was still light out after walking to the post office- Yay!

Oh I see MapleBeard's snow-plastered face so clearly. You must have loved the discovery.

So you have a Maple Ent? Be careful shoveling so early in the morning, since no one is out to help you if you take a fall!

Gran Annie, of course- to me always looks like an old gieser throwing up his arms. This storm had snow stuck to everything! He kept all his branches this round.

Tabor, Ever since I first saw TreeBeard in the LOR film, The Two Towers I realized the front tree's real name. He's always spoken to me. I believe in tree spirits.
Always have my cell with me in case of unexpected problems.

You can totally see his face - that is so neat. Your camera really caught those falling flakes - pretty, although I'm sure you are weary of the snow.

So sorry to have missed these posts - I've been so busy at work and after that I'm getting caught up today. Hope you are well.

Light in the back ground
Up front an old tree
Snow flacks dancing
Between them
What more could it be
A tale of blizzard
A beard and yellow glow
A pic all yen-yang

Lynn, definitely brings out what I've been seeing - n more snow showers today, n tomorrow, n another storm Monday...
I see your posts n then fall asleep before commenting often, n the connection dies. So don't feel bad at all!

Ellis! Hope I can continue to amaze you with strange images as much as words they drum out of you amaze me! Thanks for the fun verse comment!

Neo, No way I'm opening the windows in this cold jam! Taken From the front porch, btw.

Hello 3:00 a.m shoveler.

Do you think all snowflakes are really unique? I hear they are but I find it hard to believe.

Neo, you must have "Heat Included"- I'm paying thru the nose for it here.

Jannie, Water crystals are pretty small n can combine in many different combos, like lottery numbers I imagine...
