Snow Drifts: Part 2

Thursday afternoon the sun was shining brightly so we decided to take a break from book work, and house work and get some fresh air.  Though the sun was shining, the temperature was only around 10 degrees!  Still it was a lovely walk, quite brisk.  The sun shining on the ice covered snow made it look even colder!

Our patio is solid ice!

Drift at the end of our lane, at the corner of Mielke and Funk

Plowed snow banks on Rolinco Road

Baxter on full alert!

These snow balls were thrown in to the field by the snow plow.  The ice crust on the snow kept them on top of the snow.

There are huge chunks of snow after the drifts were plowed.

Rolinco Road, looking east.

Again, Rolinco Road looking east with a shadow of a cute dog in for the foreground.

A closer look at some big chunks.

If you could move these, they would make a really cool snow fort!

This drift around the fuel tank is pretty neat.

Drifts are as high as the pasture fence.

The lane to our house was drifted very deep.

And this is how the day ended on Thursday, clear and very cold, but so pretty.
