Blizzard!

Schools have been cancelled all week. Roads are closed all over the state. I have to say, I don't remember EVER having a blizzard in November before! Something tells me that this winter is going to be a whopper! This is the view from our front door, looking northeast up Eagle Pointe. I took this during a lull in the storm, when you could actually see across the street!
This is a shot of our backyard. You can see our poor plum tree, which was a victim in the first heavy snowfall. It hadn't lost its leaves yet - so it didn't stand a chance. We tried to knock off the snow, but as you can see - we didn't get to it in time. We're all SO sad, as this tree was our heaviest producer.

This is the view of our back deck. This table gives you an idea of how much snow has fallen. Whoa!

This cold weather is perfect for making applesauce though. Bailee and Grandma have done several batches together.





She loves to run the food mill, which really helps her grannie out. She's becoming quite the little chef.
