    When it snows like it did here yesterday, and drops 7"-8", the woods just take on a whole fresh look that I will never get tired of. Can't get enough of it. It's just beautiful… I am a very lucky guy indeed… :fire:

    I just happened to snap a few shots of my morning romp in the woods with the hounds this morning. I get to do this everyday whether I want to or not.:)

    News said this morning that 25 Central Maine Power trucks and crews just left headed your way. They were returning the favor when your power crews came this way about a month ago. Hang in there…

    Luckily we got more snow than ice .25" South of here, locals saying worse ice storm ever, and although hundreds of thousands w/o power, '96 is the worst I can remember. Power outages is why I bought a woodstove in the first place. Then a genny. Be safe all...

    Nice dogs Dave, are they rescues? This is my latest rescue, she doesn't like the snow as much as my labs, the labs would play all day in the snow, the minute I opened the door and they saw snow they took off like rockets, not this one, but I love her anyway.

    Actually can't get the pic to post but she's in my avatar.

    Not trying to HJ your thread but some more pics, plenty of ice in the trees on day 2. Hopefully you can see the glistening in the tree tops from the sun.

    You get enough heat from the sun to melt the ice
    off the trees?
