her standing, snow shovel in hand, along our driveway in Bluff Country (Southeastern Minnesota). Seemed like a good time to make a comparison of the wordy "snowy" as commonly applied in Minnesota and Florida..... The Florida birds are snowy egrets.
"Snowy". I guess it depends a lot upon where you are.....:)
I'll take the Florida version!
ReplyDeleteGreat images!
ReplyDeleteI hope you don't make Mrs. T shovel anymore snow or she will fly away to Florida forever!
ReplyDeletereally cute!
ReplyDeleteI'll take the Florida snow over the Minnesnow-da snow! :-)
ReplyDeleteTB: Mrs. TB, climb up on that huge snowbank so I can take your picture.
ReplyDeleteMrs T: I don't want to, I might fall.
TB: Don't worry, its only snow, you won't get hurt!

This has been the wurst winter I can ever remember!

I love snow, but after a week being house bound, that Florida version sounds pretty good.
ReplyDeleteMy WI friends sent photographs of our former house. Makes our 14 inches seem small. Especially now that the temperature is in the 50s.
ReplyDeleteNice comparison of snow opposites. If the photos are this year , you rally have a lot of snow.
ReplyDeleteWonderful photos! Love the Egrets and seeing Baron.
ReplyDeleteThose Minnesota photos strengthen my thankfulness that I live in the South. Your post was an entertaining and informative contrast of the regions.
ReplyDeleteMinnesota: not for the faint-hearted. I take a certain pride in that, but to tell the truth I'm getting a little sick of it. :)
ReplyDeleteI love snow---but I'm sure for you all, you are SICK of it up there. We just don't see much down here...
ReplyDeleteI cannot imagine THAT much snow anywhere. Yipes...
The photo of Oak Hill Drie is gorgeous though.
Hugs,
Betsy
I like your Florida version best..no offense to Mrs TB:)
ReplyDeleteI'll take the Florida situation! lol
ReplyDeleteI love this series of photos, Trout!
ReplyDeleteYour snow accumulation is simply amazing!! -- barbara
ReplyDeleteSnowy birds...much nicer than snowflakes. ;)

Living on the Georgia/Florida line, I've seen many many snowy egrets.
ReplyDeleteI haven't seen the snow like you have, though...not in person.
It's beauuuuuuutiful!!
It doesn't matter how you get your "snowy" photos, they're all beautiful.
ReplyDeleteHow long did it take for you to shovel that street?
ReplyDeleteYou have to be built for that kind of snow. In other words, you need special genes I think.
ReplyDeleteLovely photos! We had 14 to 16 inches of snow and a little more is in the forecast. I'm tired of it.
