The Orchard on Christmas Day

This morning when we went to check on the chickens I noticed for the first time how the snow drifted along the north fence in the orchard.

The chickens are not happy with all our snow but the trees will benefit greatly come spring.

  3. Amazing. You have snow; we don't. There isn't even very much in the mountains. At least the roads have been good for travelers.

  6. Lucky you! I'd give anything to build a snowman. Not to mention, I'd rather be tracking snow in my house than that nasty mud we've been getting from all that rain. Oh well (sigh) can't complain, we've been in a drought!!
