Can you believe this winter weather!!!! From blizzards to fog to snow again, it's Febr.15th and we are going to get 6 to 10 more inches of snow tonight. It's extremely beautiful, how often do we get to see "white" snow all winter long. Usually it's brown the day after. This is a winter wonderland in Wisconsin. I grew up in Upper Michigan and most of my childhood was spent climbing snowbanks 6ft. tall, so I'm lovin the white stuff. What is truly amazing is the winter fog we had early February. It lasted for almost 3 days and that created some treacherous driving conditions. Hope you are all having a great sledding, snowman building,snowball throwing,ice skating, wonderful winter season. It will be over very soon, so enjoy it while it lasts. By the way, we have broken the all time Wisconsin record of over 80 inches this year. Marquette in the U.P. reported over 115 inches. I wonder if all the snow down here has affected there snowmobiling tourist industry up there?
The pictures taken between the blobs on the window are from inside my house. The window was warm and the snow just clung to the windows!
