My yard after I got home from skiing today. We're in the 200" or so range so far, which is about average. I missed all the mid-winter pictures (frankly, not enough daylight hours to get out there and take any). Hope these attach - my first attempt.
Okay, so I do like tulips - I'm just not ready.Mine won't be up for a month or two. Or three?
Oh, and just for snowbank scale, that's a 50lb Aussie/German Shepherd mix in the 3rd picture. Lake Superior in the background.

Skierchickie, look at the first picture of this thread. Wanna do a house swap? I'd love to check out your place and you can come down here and ride every day. I never get to see snow!!!! That's a LOT!

Sandra - hmmmm...... nope!
Mississippi is hot & muggy - I'd melt! I have a rare condition called the Wicked Witch of the North Syndrome. Makes me crabby & sweaty in Mississippi.
You could visit, though! It is a nice picture, by the way - very pretty, but very deceptively HOT! 70 is my max, and that is if it isn't too humid.
When you come up here, this would be the time of year. The sun is shining (not so much in January) and it's 35 right now, although it's supposed to drop through the teens tomorrow and be in the 20s most of the week.
I know this is blasphemy on TE, but I don't wanna ride in the winter! Skiing is my thing (for the last -erg - 33 years!
Since I was 9.). Biking must wait another month or so.
Enjoy your flowers & unbearable heat!

But it was always a lot of fun to call the family and tell them I was wearing shorts in February. Not that we didn't have cold and snow (it was northern MS after all), but nothing like PA.
