Tuesday morning. 7-8 am

It's snowing here at Toad Woods. Fast'n'heavy. Any bets on how much more snow I'll have by the time it stops? And how much ice?

Flashing My Stash

Oh, the weather outside is frightful, but the yarn inside's delightful...

My Favorite Mohair One pound. 980 yards of luscious beauty. My favorite Rhinebeck find to date. And just look at the rich tone of the boucle behind. It came from Grandpa's Garage at WEBS.

Click through on the image to my incomplete Knitters Knit gallery, then forward to see photos of the rest of my stash. Well, most of it anyway.

Fiber folks, please consider yourself encouraged to Flash Your Stash.

Six inches ago....

...this was the view of my back deck.

Through the Back Door View onto my deck from inside the back door. That mound? There's a gas grill underneath. At least there was when it started snowing. That ridge along the back? That's the snow on top of the 4-foot fence surrounding the deck. In my less than informed but still somewhat knowledgeable opinion, it's a miracle my deck is still standing.

Click on the image to get to the Toad Woods gallery and then advance for six more pictures of snow, an icicle then and now, and a look at a resourceful oil delivery person....

There's an entire mountain range of plowed snow at the bottom of my driveway, and the side of the drive is lined with many other peaks. This year's snow leaves me extraordinarily grateful that I've never lived in Buffalo.

Winter Fun at Plow Mountain

Plow Mountain Click on through for the full effect. Well, as best as I could capture. Eight pix in all.

And here's the quick link to all 8 thumbnails and the big icicle from earlier today, too.
