a few more wintry scenes

Just a few more wintry scenes from our neck of the woods ...

I think this was last weekend.  Just before sunset.

 We have the  most interesting icicles on our living room windows.  This was taken through the screen, as you can see.

 On one of the snowshoe hikes.  I liked the spot of color from the sunshine reflecting off something.

 The same stream I posted the video of, a few days later.  There's a skim of ice on it in this photo. 

 Another just before sunset.

Yesterday's snowstorm, out at the beaver pond.  Mr. T took a snowshoe hike out there with grandsons Sam and Josiah.

 Not sure if he is just resting or if he took a spill.  My guess is he's resting.  He looks cheerful enough!

Can't tell if Sam is adjusting a snowshoe binding or looking at something on the surface of the pond.  I wanted to use this photo because it shows how hard it was snowing, even though the snow was very fine.  This was a storm that amounted to at least six inches, I think, yet there was never any winter weather advisory, winter storm warning, or anything else.  Crazy.  Just kept saying in the regular forecast that we would get 5 to 8 inches.  And yet some of the hyped-up winter storms, complete with names, have produced greater warnings, more school closures, and far less snow than this one did!  Go figure ...

I know many are thinking spring.  It's just not even close yet up here!
