Super Bowl Weekend

A couple inches of snow fell since Saturday night. It is still a gray day outside and no interesting photo ops yet. I did take a couple pics of the cold front coming in Saturday around noon. The sun had finally come out and there was blue sky. As we headed for Omak, we saw a nearly clean line of clouds coming from the southwest. It was very striking.
The pictures were taken from Highway 97 about halfway between Tonasket and Omak heading south. The sun was just peaking out from the edge of the first pic. It was completely behind the clouds on the second pic.

On a sadder note, the Seahawks lost yesterday. We went to a friend's place for a super bowl party. Had a good time despite the loss. Why did they throw the ball when standing next to the goal line? Football is a rarity for us, but we root for the local team. Glad we don't live in Dallas. Haha.

Our spring-like temperatures are having a bad affect on local plant life. We are seeing trees getting color back. Those with red limbs or yellow are turning more so. That is 2-3 months ahead of schedule. although no buds yet they may be here soon. I hope we don't get a hard freeze after the buds come on the fruit trees. It will be a big problem for the apple / pear / cherry growers in the county.
It is snowing again! Big fluffy flakes ATM. Expecting another inch today here in Aeneas Valley. I think its time for some more wood in the fire.
