Day 35
This bird feeder hangs well above the ground, soon the partridges will be able to eat right out of it (early this morning).

Three pictures today, because I got all dressed up and went outside to take lots of pictures (I have never seen this much snow here and wanted a record). Back to -30C temperatures (-40C windchill). The snow drifts are hard packed - I walked on top and barely left a mark.

Day 31
The Canadian Museum for Human Rights in Winnipeg (set to open in Sept. 2014). I am looking forward to the opening.
I am beginning to think this photo journal should have been called
snapshots from the window! This time the car. Back to -30C temperatures, high winds.
This afternoon's drive to pick up my son from school.
I am glad I wasn't driving.

Day 30
A flock of grey partridges ran for shelter when I tried photographing
them at the bird feeder outside the window.

Day 27
Lots more than one photo today, but today was a holiday and temperatures were around freezing, plus there was a fresh snowfall last night, so it was a great day to all spend some time outdoors!
Shovelling and ploughing of course.
Then time for fun (the roads hadn't been ploughed yet).
I made a snow angel.
I was hoping, because of the warm temperatures, to make a snowman, but the snow was still too dry (it is rare that we have sticky snow to make snowballs).
My son tobogganing (in the industrial park).
I even tried driving the quad.
After the fun!

Day 25
I am trying knitting with beads for the first time - it is much easier than I thought it would be.

Day 24
Our home - February 14th, 2014.
I thought I would try to take a picture once a month, to see the differences throughout the year.

Day 22
The ombré spinning worked - I started knitting a shawl with it.
Thanks for the congratulations! We had lunch reservations for a revolving restaurant in downtown Winnipeg yesterday, but with whiteout conditions we cancelled.
This was our drive into Winnipeg yesterday-

Day 20
All the feathers are quilted on my whole cloth quilt
(it is an anniversary quilt and will be over 90" square -
wool batting and double wide cotton fabric).
♥Joanne
Day 19
Spinning today - I am hoping to create ombre yarn (there is dark purple to light purple to yellow under the blue).

Day 18
My son dug a cave in one of the snow drifts - those are the soles of his boots (he only went in because I was out there too - it can be dangerous. I was glad when he came out).
♥Joanne
Day 17
I watched an airplane cut through the clouds, but didn't get my camera in time to take a picture of the plane, just the trail left behind.
♥Joanne
Day 16
I spent a few hours quilting, and watching (really listening to) movies - life is good!
♥Joanne
Day 11
I was hoping to quilt the centre feathered wreath
on the whole cloth quilt today, and I did!
