The Calm After the Storm
It's been a while since I've posted an aerial photo of the backyard. This morning presented a fine opportunity to do so. I've always loved the morning after a great winter storm. The world outside just seems so calm and peaceful.
Poor Bobby. Despite the fact that he's built like a horse, even he had trouble maneuvering through two feet of snow.
On a side note, I was able to brush all of the snow off my hoop house when I got home tonight. Luckily, everything still appears intact.

The snow has done a good whitewash.... very calming indeed.
ReplyDeleteI also love the morning after the snow. It feels like everything has stopped and all things I have to do can wait one more day.
ReplyDeleteGreat picture of Bobby in the snow. He seems happy, his tail is up. But that might be because he doesn't want to get it wet.
I love the pic of Bobby!
ReplyDeleteThe look on Bobby's face is pricelss! He certainly is built like a horse!
ReplyDeleteI'm happy to hear that the hoop house is intact. Although, the snow was keeping the cold frames at a constant 37, I had to remove it. When the sun hit the snow it would melt a bit and was causing a large ice dam and dip in the plastic. I was afraid the plastic would rip. The same thing would have probably happened to your hoop house.
Bobby's a trooper.
ReplyDeleteYou have WAY more snow than us! I just realized you have a blue door on your shed also, guess we could start a club! ;)
ReplyDeleteGlad the hoophouse weathered the storm just fine.
I too love the morning after a snowstorm. Usually the only sounds we hear are the birds chirping around the bird feeders. Your yard looks beautiful with its blanket of snow. Love seeing Bobby :)
ReplyDeleteYou do have a lot of snow! Look at that poor dog! So cute.
ReplyDeleteGlad to hear the hoop house made it through okay.
Hmmph! All our snow has gone now - can I have some of yours please!
ReplyDeleteThe hoop house is standing up well against the elements. Good work there!
Bobby looks as though he is pleading for help! haha
ReplyDeleteGreat news about the hoop house. Looks like your construction details worked out well.
ReplyDeleteThat was an amazing blizzard! I actually showed up to work on time at 7:00 a.m. At least the road crew was prepared. I love the blue tinge to the snow ~ great pictures! Having three dogs, only one of which is Bobby's size and the other two smaller, I totally understand...we have more snow removal to do this weekend. Glad to see your hoop house survived. COME ON SPRING!!!! please
ReplyDeleteThe hoop house held up nicely but it is good that you got the snow off - it just gets heavier as the melt starts. I have to go straighten my grow tunnel up today - part of it got a bit squashed in the heavy wet snow we got on Tuesday. Had to wait until the weekend when I can see what I am doing to do the final tidy up on it.
ReplyDeletethat first picture is gorgeous, Thomas. I can hear the silence all the way down here...
ReplyDeleteThe images are amazing.
ReplyDeletetwo feet snow.Its really calm after storm.
