First Snow

Gypsy is so happy, she loves snow!

We got our first snowfall of the season last week. Tuesday… if you are wondering. It was very pretty to look at but it didn’t last very long. But Gypsy got a chance to go and run around in it like a goof ball and she managed to roll in it and bite at it and just basically act like a pup. It’s fun to watch her so joyously experience the fluffy stuff.

It wasn’t much, really kind of a dusting and was pretty much gone by evening fall. But then we got some super cold weather for a few days. It’s back to being pretty reasonable out there.

Frost on the pumpkins…. haha… kind of taken to the extreme. But you know, I still have broccoli and lettuce growing in my garden and I haven’t covered it or anything!!! I think next year I am going to make a little cover for one of the beds and see how long I can grow like broccoli, lettuce, carrots and oh, maybe cabbage? That will be fun. Seeing how long the broccoli is lasting let me think that with some row covers or a little cold frame action, I could have garden fresh goodies for about 8-9 months out of the year! That would be sweet.

First Snow — 1 Comment

  1. Thanks for posting this. I actually was wondering about the weather up there, especially after seeing the pics you posted of the car loaded with boxes. It looked like a beautiful day; no snow on the ground and the sun shining. When I watch the news I get the impression most of the country is covered in 6 to 10 inches of snow. We can’t get a break from the heat though; 87 here today, ugh!
