Hint of snow on Christmas morning...

Just a tiny dusting of snow was on the ground this morning - very pretty.
Rainfall records in just under 2 days -
This creek was even higher a few hours prior to the picture but it was still overflowing it's banks as we passed on our way to town. Earlier we couldn't even pass by on this road as the water was covering it just enough to cause concern.

From the deck you can see the heavy run-off in one of the 2 streams that run through the yard - we wound up with several other streams due to the abundance of water that ran off the ridge. It sure sounded great!

Wow!! Access to the internet....finally!

Crisp Fall morning from pictures taken a while back I haven't been able to post.
This is what we see most every morning from the deck when I had to heat the water on the camp chef, it's simply gorgeous. Looking to the right...the west side of the yard. The large rocks are intended for the retainer wall so we can hopefully get the driveway soon.

Back to the left a bit
A carpet of acorns out front
Love these - now a days the seeds are sprouting. Just what we need, more trees!
Hope it doesn't take that long before I get back to the internet...have missed this!
Merry Christmas Everyone!!
