Our First Snow of the 2013 Winter Season

 We've been hunkered down here at The Farmhouse since it
snowed last Friday...Although we're definitely getting a
little stir crazy we've stayed busy working on the house.

My sweetie has spent many hours with a headlamp on
checking on the temperature inside the pump house
(see image below). It froze three nights in a row. We now know
that we need to re-do the pump house to better insulate
our water pump from the well. In addition to insulation
we hope to side it with galvanized metal, add a little deck
& outdoor shower & tub.

A few images around the house...
I love our long driveway covered in snow


Some garden art frosted with snow...



A little Charlie Brown Christmas tree in the back yard...


The pump house that needs a little love...


The sun finally coming out through the trees...


Taking a walk with my sweeties...



Saying hello to our neighbors...



 We continued on to walk to the Post Office & local store about a mile down the highway...




 The snow is gorgeous, but we're ready for it to melt away & get back to "normal" conditions here in the foothills.
