More snow!

Woke up to a snowy morning here; the system that blew up from the Idaho panhandle- but at least it's warm and melting already. not like Edmonton that had -30C last night! Brrrrr! My car looked like it had been sprayed like a popcorn ceiling.
Yes, that's an '81 Caddilac
The upside of this is that the mud in the horse pens is all covered up, and most of the ice is gone so it's not too slippery any more.
Sure is pretty!
Even though it is snow, it's welcome as a break from the mud and it's easy on the eye-but the best part is I know it won't last long!

We are getting some nasty weather here right now too, after a couple weeks of above zero temps. I can taste spring though (even through the 5 feet of snow) so that is always nice to look forward too!

I really don't like the spring and the mud that comes with it...we've had this melt recently and the mud has started...

IanH said...

You are fortunate. Your snow will melt soon. Ours will last 'till the end of March (at least).

I knew a dairy farmer who had a caddy too - he said it was his hunting vehicle- great for fitting a deer in the trunk...lol I bet you can fit lots of bags of feed and blocks in there!

Shirley said...

Gowest- that trunk is huge! We've only had this car for a few months, so I have yet to test its capacity. Maybe a big shopping trip to Sandpoint will help!

That last picture sure is pretty! Yes, we are now finally getting mudd. But I have a feeling that it won't be long before it freezes back up again. I unfortunately never liked the big cars, I remember the hubbies Aunt driving the great big lincolns and wondering how the heck she ever parked the thing. It seemed to be longer than our pick up was.

Hi Shirley, I've been stopping by and reading your post every day just haven't had the time to write. Pictures and videos have been great and how wonderful about Velvet. It's storming here, much needed snow and rain. Can't wait to see that Caddy uncovered. LOL

Sarah said...

The snow is beautiful and so are your wordless Wed. pictures! Congrats on the sale of Velvet and I'm glad your happy with her new owner! I absolutly LOVE your picture of the geese up in the sky! I've been seeing quite a few of them lately too. Hope their flights north mean winter is going to cut it short this year! Sorry for commenting on several posts in one spot, but my internet has slowed for the evening and its taking a long time to load stuff! Enjoyed all the posts I got to though!

The snow is prettier than the mud, but it does get tired awful fast

We got a lot more than that pretty little skiff of snow you got. There was a good 3 inches on my Chevy last night when I left work. Our driveway wasn't bad, but man oh man when I went down to the barn to do chores... knee high drifts!

Janice said...

Ehh!! nice pictures though. I just can't work up much enthusiasm for any more snow anything.That's a pretty red horse though snow or no snow.We have a ways to go to get to mud but even then it won't last long the joys of living on a gravel pit I guess.

Michele said...

ooh, caddies are nice comfortable cars! love caddies! lucky you!! :) yeah the snow is bad here. its -24 right now. ours bearly melts before the next dump comes! 4 months of snow really does get on ones nerves with the constant cold to boot. iam wondering if spring is ever going to get here! sigh...

Dreaming said...

It looks so pretty and quiet. But...the mud will be back!

Ed said...

Cool Caddy, and a classic too. Cool shots, love how you decorated the caddy with ceiling insulation..:-)))

Crystal said...

That sure is pretty, but the best part is ou never got the cold that goes with it. We never got any snow lately, but it sure is ucky out. a high should never be -20. Way too cold to go out in.

It definitely is pretty. Hang in there, Shirley!
