If the weather gets cold enough to freeze the water collecting in our backyard we could be doing this. Of course I would need to go on a desparate search for ice skates. I think I may have a pair or two... (Some of these kids have outgrown the skates they had two years ago when the photo was taken.) Well, I doubt the "lake" will freeze over this year anyway.
This is how it looked yesterday morning (and today too). 2007 will one day be remembered as "The Year Without a Winter".
Nothing normal about the winter this year! I actually have been seeing robins here in Missouri this past week which is unusual.
ReplyDeleteThis is a very strange winter. I remember in 1990 a song called "November Rain" came out and I thought it was strange because I had never seen rain in November.
ReplyDeleteit still looks very nice!!
ReplyDeleteI hope your kids will not be too disappointed that they can't ice skate this 'winter'.
You seem to have a very nice property, too. How many acres?
your killen me! thats it I am now going to pray every day that you get snow at least once this winter!
ReplyDeletestarting tonight!
Our kids are pretty disappointed that last year we didn't have enough snow to even go sledding once, and this year we haven't had more than a slight dusting on the grass.
ReplyDeleteOkay, I have to figure out how to put a little picture by my comments like everyone else!
ReplyDeleteNow that's a big difference. But I'm not going to complain although I do wish it would stop raining so darn much!
ReplyDeleteWe own about 3 1/2 acres but I think the 1/2 might be under water right now. With every rain we lose a little bit more. All the area under water is lawn we were mowing in summers past. (We have a little drainage problem, huh?)
ReplyDeleteI think it looks nice with a pond. Maybe that is what you should do. Just go for having a pond year round.
ReplyDelete(hi everyone)
