We really did have SNOW in the Southeast USA this year. Great photos

These photos are late, but great.

I've been busy trying to get a lot of my raw yarn made into fantastic wearable big rasta hats, so that my yarn supply is mostly depleted by the end of the year.

These photos were taken on Feb. 12, 2010; but I'm just getting around to posting them. Enjoy them. 

 Perhaps they will give you a cool feeling amidst these rising spring/summer temperatures.
I can't remember how many inches we had, but it stuck on the tree limbs.

My back yard enjoyed the winter wonderland.

Only one of the chicken dared venture out into the "whiteness". The others took a look, said NO THANKS, and turned around. This girl is obviously tasting the snow. (Can't remember her reaction to it)

I hope that all of the cold weather killed most of the mosquitos.

My wonderful landscaping went to the snow.

I'm not sure of how the Yucca plants, tropical plants, felt about all of the snow. I did notice that several of them fell over.
Bon appetite/snow photos.

Fool's GOLD or what !!! What would you do??


What would you do if you were to find a lot of GOLD in your back yard?

1. Sell it and donate ALL of the proceeds to a charity? (not hardly)

2. Secretly keep it a secret from your family? (that's a thought)

3. Share measured amounts of the gold with neighbors and family? (yeah,right -well most likely)

4. Call all of the neighbors, friends, family, and co-workers, and lay the gold out on a table, and let them do their pickings. (do I look crazy)

5. Leave the country, and secretly buy a private island, and tell your family that you have a very contagious disease? (now that's a plan)



I found these wonderful rocks in my back yard while clearing area for my garden this past summer. Just got around to photographing them recently. They have such a beautiful and realistic looking gold texture. Oh how I wish.

Tell us what you would do with your GOLD find.

The HOLE with no bottom - The bottomless pit.



I discovered this hole in my back yard a few months ago. After a while, I decided to test the depthness just out of curiousity. I took the water hose and poured water into the the hole for about five minutes, and the hole never filled. I looked around nearby for a possible exit, but never found one. Therefore, my only conclusion is that the hole is extremely deep. I wonder whether it was dug by a chipmunk or what type wiseguy creature!!



I'm baffled. My grandson, also, tried filling the hole. No luck.  Therefore, it has been deemed "the hole with no bottom".
