Valentine's Day Snow

We woke up to around 4 inches of snow today. We already had a dusting from yesterday. If I am not mistaken, we've had at least one big snowfall every winter since we've lived here. They usually occur in January or February but sometimes as late as April. Here are the obligatory photos. Text and photos by Phillip Oliver, Dirt Therapy

Many thanks....

I was so surprised and excited to hear last night that my photo was selected as the winner of the Gardening Gone Wild Photo Contest for September! There were so many great entries (visit the GGW blog to see more) - well I'm just flabbergasted. Thanks so much for their site for having this contest, to High Country Gardens for the prize and for all the nice comments I've received.

    It's a great photo Phillip, simple as that!

    I've recently bought a Lumix G1, eventually I'll get to understand it but have to say I'm pleased with it thus far.
