I was out with the dogs this past Wednesday during the snow storm and snagged some pics. We got a foot of snow when all was said and done. Thought I'd share.

Panning shots from our patio:

Anyone else from the Midwest/Eastern States get any snowy shots?

WOW! :)

:cool: Snow Shots!!

NICE view - are the creek and bridge in the back yard?

Is the creek any good for Dawg Swimmin?

Absolutely beautiful! That first one could be used as a holiday picture. And that tree from your back window I would shoot by itself. It's so pretty! I wish I lived where we got snow. I love snow, Kia. You look like you love to play in it.

Thanks!

In relation to the apartment.... more like side yard. ;) :D

And yes, Kia has "swam" in it. Typically it's belly/shoulder deep, but on the really rainy days it can very deep. :)

Kia likes to chase the minnows and crayfish. :D

Lovely photos, thanks!

No photos to share, here. We got rain for 2 days; over half an inch. The back yard is a pool of MUD. Not what you want when you own four WHITE dogs. :rolleyes:

Your complex is very picturesque with all the snow on the bridge & trees.
Anyone else from the Midwest/Eastern States get any snowy shots? We sure didn't get much here on the East coast!

Those are really cool pics Kimmy. We also got about a foot of snow here in northern IL. I have more pictures I need to upload yet but have not been motivated lately. Here are a couple.

OOooo. Great pictures Kimmy.
We got a foot + up here, they even cancelled classes last Thursday.
I should take some pictures of campus, it is really pretty.

I'll ship some out to you right away Jack and Star. That dusting is not a proper snow fall!! :p :o

Yes do Ashley! :D

Great pics crazyboutanimals and Jess!

I love how Tommy plunges his head in the snow. Kia does that all the time too.

I think the deeper the better when it comes to romping. :D

Great pictures!! I really like the ones where the lamps are on because I think that time of day is so neat when it is snowing. I am glad you posted these because I almost forgot what snow looks like. :p Honestly, this is the strangest winter for us. When it is cold enough for snow we are dry. Then when we do get precipitation it is warm out and we get rain. Some of our rain storms have been humdingers and would have given us some impressive snow amounts if it was colder.
