Thunder Snow... in South Jersey!

It was both wild and a little unnerving... the "thunder snow" that we had overnight.  The sky would lighten up with flashes of lightening and then (house shaking) claps of thunder! The trees that are gently bending and touching the snow in the background are some of our 12-15 foot cedars; this morning a bit "top heavy" with snow!  But like the rest of us; they will "bounce back" in time!  Solomon, in his wisdom was right: "To everything there is a season, and a time for every purpose under heaven."

Our boxwood is hanging low, under the weight of the new fallen snow...

We're staying home today...  Warms Wishes from the new "snow belt" in South Jersey! Daryle & Katie

Our First Winter Storm!

We are in the middle of a powerful nor’easter... with well over a foot of snow on the ground, and a forecast of steady snow through the night! It is our first real snow storm in four winters, here in South Jersey! Our neighbors have been just incredible, out shoveling sidewalks for folks and clearing driveways as well. We have a fire in the fireplace and plan on settling in for a quiet evening at home! The feeders have been a flurry of feathers all day, with buntings, cardinals, house wrens, chickadees, finches and jays... all getting their fill. Spread the cheer!
