Big snow....part 1 & 2


So, here comes winter...again!  Here is the view from both our front and back steps as the snow storm revs up.  12-18" are expected here as the coastal storm involves the beach in its snow dump...... most of the time it looks like a white-out.  Good day to watch the fire, read a book and to keep the birds fed.  Stay tuned.......

It is now 4:30 p.m. and it is still snowing and blowing!

First snow

On December 16th, our first snow of the 2010 winter fell....about 2".  Here Jim is getting our squirrel feeder filled with his corn.  If we keep him busy and fed, he leaves the bird feeders alone!

Snow in Rochester

We attended my dad's Christmas party this past week in Rochester where we found about 4-5" of snow....a winter wonderland!  This is a picture of Fred and Val's house with decorated trees and twinkling wreath on the door....quite beautiful!  Note the snowy front yard......

Rockefeller Center Christmas tree

We were in NYC this week for the lighting of the Rockefeller Center Christmas tree.  Despite the heavy rain yesterday, we did a lot of walking and took in the sights of Times Square and Rockefeller Center.  A good beginning to the holiday season!
