Another Snow Storm 🌨️ Blizzard Warnings

Hello and welcome this was Fridays delivery of SNOW! ❄️ However they are currently calling for a Blizzard Warning. Which in the warning it states 2-3 Feet and high winds with gusts up to 45 miles per hour. The trees are weighted down now as it is. Today is sunny this Saturday afternoon. Bruce was cutting wood to prepare us for the boiler since he would be unable to do so if the blizzard comes. We only cut wood of downed trees and trees that are dead. We haven’t bought wood loads in over two years. There just is no money for buying the loads. The first two years we were here we did buy large loads of wood, so all Bruce had to do was cut the wood into small pieces for the boiler or the Pioneer Princess stove. We have bought the large contractor type bags full of wood for $40 bucks but now they aren’t available like they used to be. The company here stopped selling them. It was very convenient as they were already split to fit in your fireplace or hearth. Sometimes the local hardware store will have them and we will get Colby to pick one up for us but the low income has kept us from purchasing them as much as we would like to. So today he has spent most of the day cutting wood and splitting it to prepare for the blizzard coming our way. 
Just look at those beautiful colors of nature, it sure makes me happy and feel so proud to see it. 

The purples and the oranges just make you feel the beautiful light. This would make a wonderful painting. 

The trees are still weighted down and to add more snow is scary. 🫣 

Of course I always like to get close up shots of plants and those icicles. 

This is in the back yard I just love how the sun shines on the trees. 

Breathtaking views 

Rosie was loving the snow. I had to give her a treat to come inside. 

Look at her go 

I took some random pics so you can see how it looks now before the blizzard hits. 

This was Friday morning. 

Bruce had cleared the porch and you can see it was piled up. 

The John Deere Gator was not happy with all the snow. That’s our plow. We got this John Deere in 2015 and it was the best thing we had done to get around the farm in. I am thankful for it!!! Can’t say it enough. 

Peace Out. Bruce and I. We are still boiling sap for the maple syrup. Today we collected 8 five gallon buckets full. I rode in the gator but that was the most we have collected in all the times. We have got 6 1/2 five gallon buckets full before. Which is the usual. I worked on my mushroom project most of the day. Here and there. Taking care of my plants. We are having chili from bags we froze for supper. Take care and have a great day and weekend. 

Much love and good vibes, 

Dawn Gallop
