Serious Icicles!





Well, we've survived Blizzard # 2 ...or is it #3?
I don't know anymore!

This last blizzard was the scariest I think...the wind blew like there was no tomorrow...



...this is what almost all of our windows looked like last night...scary!

And today,

the sun is out

and the most unbelievable icicles are everywhere!

We walked around and grabbed some photos...








Some of them were actually bent...I'm in awe of Mother Nature...she wins, hands down!

Great post. Mother Nature is doing her best to blanket us in texas. Most snow we have seen since 1977! The bent icicle is amazing.

Wow, those icicles are something else! HUGE! It was so nice to see the sun shine today even if it was still cold out. I can handle the cold if the sky is blue and the sun is shining! Looks like you got a ton of snow. Stay warm!

Oh Paula Sweetie...
Such beauty the storm has left behind. I can't believe so much snow for all of you. We are supposed to be in the 70's this weekend and the upper 70's by Monday. I wish I could bottle some of this sunshine and warmth up and send it to you. This is why I love the desert. It may be hot in the Summer but I sure love Fall and Winter. I haven't owned a coat since we moved out here 25 years ago. I have a jacket only.

I love the photos you have shared. Those icicles are just the best sweetie. So beautiful aren't they? I want to wish you a Happy Valentine's Day. I hope the weather permits and you will be able to get out and enjoy something for the day. Some sort of happiness outside. No fun being locked in. Looks like the critter was enjoying it by the way.

Have a beautiful day sweetie. Thank you for sharing and for stopping by to say hi. I so love it when you do.

Country hugs and much love...Sherry

Hi Paula! Wow! Those icicles are crazy. Glad to hear you survived all this white stuff we've been getting. Did you hear more may be on the way???? OMG! I really think I might be done with winter!

I was going to send you an email but I don't see your email address on your blog. Can I do a post to show my readers your signs? I just love them. I'm still trying to figure out where I can fit one in my tiny apartment! I don't have much wall space left!

They are so beautiful and I know my readers will love them too. Let me know...cindy95131@yahoo.com

Mother Nature just left her imprint on our neck of the woods yesterday! Six inches of snow came down and this morning I awoke to ice frost. Your State and our Island probably are much alike weather-wise. I'm looking forward to Spring!
I love your signs; beautiful! Your creative spirit is just wonderful! I'm signing up so I can keep track of you. Have a lovely day.

Blessings,
Sandi

Feel free to stop in my blog and take a gander, I have only been blogging for a couple of weeks now, but I'm learning fast! :) Have a great day!
