The fountain in the middle of a traffic circle not far from my house. All ice.

We don't get below, or much below freezing normally. Today the high is 30º. The low this morning was 15º.





At least it's better than Snowmaggedon from Feb 2012

My back yard birds were demanding that I do something about their frozen birdbath. They were tired of ice skating so I poured a pot of hot water on it. It had about froze over again in an hour.

Here's our scene currently of winter taken a few minutes ago. It's gotten down into the twenties a couple of times at night lately. Today is mid 60s with 70s coming up ovet the weekend. I feel bad for the rest of the country & hope they get through this safely.

The RV is nice but I highly recommend retirement!

^^^^^^ Looks like a Currier & Ives print!

Taken in Mammoth 12 years ago. We wanted a "White Christmas" and got 10 feet of snow from Wednesday to Sunday...

During the ice storm a couple of days ago, it was necessary to switch out the feeders every couple of hours because the nectar would freeze. This little fella was never more than a couple of feet from this perch, no matter how close I got to him. He was probably in cold weather torpor, and it was really interesting to see how his feathers were puffed up for extra insulation.
