Animals After the Storm 02/24/2010
When I woke up this morning, I looked out our farm house bedroom window to see how much snow we got. The view out this particular window shown very little new snow on the lawn, so I thought we didn't get much more snow through the night. But I was surprised when I stepped outside to go over to Porter House. It snowed more than I thought, the snow had blown around leaving some areas looking like less snow and other areas with feet of snow. In the morning Todd did a great job plowing the Porter House driveway and parking lot and then went to plow the farm driveway. At Porter House, we have a very nice blacktop parking lot. Up to 6 cars can be parked easily. The parking lot is designed for easy driving in and out. I need lots of room when I am backing up so we made sure if I could do it safely then others will be able to also. There is a handicap spot with a loading apron available right next to a rail that leads to the front door. In the afternoon, Patty spotted some turkeys out eating in the corn field. Then later when the turkeys were gone the deer showed up. All I can figure was the wildlife stayed in the woods during the snow storm and now were hungry for a treat of corn. Add Comment Gigantic Snowflakes 02/23/2010
Today the scene out our large great room windows was gigantic snow flakes falling on the partially exposed lawn and the snow layered hay fields. The large snow flakes filled the air appearing as falling white dots from as high as you could see slowly floating downward to the earth. The trees and bushes were beautiful with the layer of snow outlining as a white line along their dark branches. You could easily see this beautiful scenery by traveling any country road in Shawano, WI today, but how nice is it to see it from the comfort of your living room chair, from your kitchen table or from your own bed. Soon we will be sharing such beautiful views with our new residents | AnnOwner and Director of ArchivesMay 2010 CategoriesAll |
