Joanne's Snapshots
A photo/video journal blog. This is now a no-comment blog. Thanks for stopping by!
Day 99
Good camouflage!
❤Joanne
Day 98
I started a new project - a 'Storm at Sea' lap quilt.
❤Joanne
Day 97
When I started taking these melting snow pictures I thought it would take about 2 weeks. It has been over 3 weeks!
This drift is still a few feet deep (my son dug out a cross section), so we still have a long way to go.

Day 96

Day 95
My three men were moving the snow around, trying to get it to melt faster.
Later in the day it looked like this.
❤Joanne
Day 94
We woke up to this!
It was gone by the afternoon.
❤Joanne
Day 93
Begonias under the grow lights - one month to go before they can be planted outside.
There is a train on the horizon today.
❤Joanne
Day 92
This sparrow seems to be staking his claim on the birdhouse.
It is nice to see so many birds (crows and robins).
❤Joanne
Day 91
It always amazes me how quickly the tulips pop out when the snow melts.
❤Joanne
Day 90
+14℃ forecast for tomorrow, should bring some big changes.
❤Joanne
Day 89
The sunlight made the branches of the dogwood bush glow this morning.
My oldest son took me for a ride on the quad today - it was lovely to be out in warmer weather.
One more week and I think the snow will be gone!
❤Joanne
Day 88
Slowly, but surely!
It looks like the shed is surrounded by a moat (the water drains to the back of the yard).
❤Joanne
Day 87
We drive by these beautiful sculptures on the way back from my parents.
❤Joanne
Day 86
There are thin layers of ice all over the yard.
The Juncos hope in and out of the holes looking for food, but I couldn't get a good picture.
❤Joanne
Day 85
The thaw has come to a standstill - the temperatures are well below normal, -15℃ tonight.
❤Joanne
Day 84
Little round Juncos waiting for food.
❤Joanne
Day 83
Our home - April 2014.
Some snow pictures -
The Big Thaw.
We are expecting a record breaking night -
the coldest temperatures for this day in 120 years of recorded history!
-17℃ forecast without the windchill.
❤Joanne
Day 82
The snow looked like plastic.
Nice and sunny today, but cold.
❤Joanne
Day 81
The birds were hopping!
A little setback in the big thaw.
❤Joanne
Day 80
More birds are back for the summer -
a
Grackle
and a
Mourning Dove
.
With all the
Juncos
around, the ground looks like it is moving - they move around so fast.
Still melting!
❤Joanne
Day 79
The snowbank behind my car was much taller than the car, today I can see my son walking from school when I pick him up.
❤Joanne
Day 78
The Juncos are back - we only see these in the spring and fall, when they pass through.
Lots of melting today - the temperature was +10℃!
This was a parking lot that we went by - still lots of dirty snow.
❤Joanne
Day 77
The robins are back from their winter vacation to warmer climates.
It was nice to hear them singing this morning.
The Big Thaw
❤Joanne
