I just wanted to stop in and tell everyone that yes, we have a lot of snow. Good thing we own a real tractor so we could get out of the lane! Seriously, I measured 17 inches of snowfall and that was where it didn't drift. It's ridiculous. It's pretty. The geese -Canadas and Snows- are crossing the fields in front of our house, looking for the pond and hopefully food. They are so pretty and although the Snows wreak havoc on the fields wherever they go, they are so pretty when they fly. They look like sparkling snowflakes falling into perfect formation on the ground.

We also went out and purchased some corn to feed the deer when they trek out of the woods behind us. The snow is so deep that won't be able to find food for at least a week of warmer weather.

We even spotted a bald eagle on the 15th of February. He circled our back yard and perched on the tree that the buzzard's usually hang out on. If you have never seen a live bald eagle in person you are missing something and need to see one soon. They are magnificent creatures - their wingspan alone is awesome! Luckily we have a spare pair of binoculars in the house so we could see him up close too. What a wonderful blessing he was.
