We broke all records, dating back to 1881, for snow fall in a 24 hour period. It is so bad they sent us home from work yesterday at 2:00 pm and closed the office completely today.

Thanksgiving 2008 ~ We Have Snow

Sky, Ruby & Tinkerbelle

I love my new back deck. I can stand on the deck, out of the snow and watch my horses have breakfast. Beautiful

Jewel is changing color again. Due to her winter coat all of that beautiful steel gray is now nearly black. If you look closely you can see the snow flakes. Jewel has a very sweet disposition just like Ruby.
I love my girls!

We woke up this morning to freezing fog and a little snow.

I Love Jewel

We Have A Moose

So were walked out back on Sunday evening. I was taking pictures of the gorgeous fall colors.
Playing with my camera that Bob bought for me last Christmas. All of the sudden I heard a crash sound. I didn't know what it was. I started to backup and Lady ran into the meadow. Bob called to me and asked what was wrong. I told him I didn't know what it was but whatever it was, WAS BIG. He was farther to the south and could see in the meadow. He yelled back to me "ITS A MOOSE". Then I freaked out realizing Lady was chasing the darn thing. We called and called and she finally came back. We followed it out to the back fence and watched him for a while. He started pacing back and forth so we decided it was time to leave. We walked out back on Monday and nearly walked into him tucked in the under brush. It is soooo cool!

Amazing Moose taken Sunday evening.
We walked out back again to see if the moose was still around and ended up about 50 feet from him. Scared me half to death when I realized he was standing watching us.

We followed him out back.
I was nervous but it was very exciting!!

We found the spot where he came over the top of the fence.
We pulled it up and stretched it out.

Big moose track. I wear a 6.5....OMG, that is a big track!
Well, what is left of Patti's Pond is really Patti's Puddle. There are moose tracks down to the pond. Of course, where he is getting drinks.
