    the snow is so darn pretty from inside the house! we got about 4 or so on the ground and that is plenty. I have 4 small dogs. the yorkies are so o over getting chilly bellys just to go pee! haha I stomped down a larger area for the 4 buggers to do their biz. so much easier for me to clean up now that they don't wander the yard. I envy you having the green house. large oak trees block too much sun. I'm looking forward to the temps getting out of the single digits next week

    Beautiful view, especially from a nice cozy quilting room!

    Very pretty! Those type of views are what I miss about snow.

    Yes it is! I used it quite a bit on my last project. I am making a couple of baby dolls for one of my grand daughters.

    Yes it is, it is coming down this spring and moved to the other side of the yard. I will get more use out of it there. I can just walk out the back door and there it is.

    We live in a small town called La Pine. About 25 miles south of Bend.

    Thanks Maw!! My husband spent 3 hours on the tractor yesterday clearing snow. He cleared our driveway, cleared paths to both dog kennels. And then went out and cleared our neighbors driveway, our cul de sac and the road.

    And I spent the day in my sewing room.

    I have an aunt and uncle in Portland and called them last night - they were really tired of the snow.

    But from here in Houston it just looks so beautiful, peaceful, and serene. Course we're not shoveling it, driving in it, etc.

    Yep, I can ditto that. I'd love to visit for a while, and admire the view but I don't want to drive in it.
