Blizzard Alert
While there have been several sightings
of Robins out there in Blogland...
We have yet to see any here
in eastern South Dakota!
The sparrows were all very busy yesterday
and this morning gathering and prepping
for today's blizzard....
That's right, there have been
teams of meteorologists spreading
the word, and warning pretty much
everyone in the state to get prepared
for a major blizzard!
Schools were called off, 100's of cancellations
across the state!
This morning?
Nothing!
Sall stayed home from work
to avoid any snow-filled, ice-packed predicaments!
Nothing!!
Then finally at noon...
this is was what we saw...
Okay, the huge snow flakes were melting
when they hit the window, sorry!
I'll open my window....
First came the rain,
now it's huge snow flakes...
Allright, maybe those weathermen
know what they are talking about
after all! (maybe they started listening
to the birds?)....
I'm brewing up some hot cocoa,
want to join me?
Winter ain't over yet folks!
WINTER Poem...
It's winter in South Dakota
And the gentle breezes blow
Seventy miles an hour
At thirty-five below.
Oh, how I love South Dakota
When the snow's up to your butt
You take a breath of winter
And your nose gets frozen shut.
Yes, the weather here is wonderful
So I guess I'll hang around
I could never leave South Dakota
I'm frozen to the ground!

Your pictures are lovely!
Thanks so much for stopping by the Back Porch. The paint chip looking things on the soup are chips of shaved hard cheese. I add cheese to veggie soup now and then.
We had a snow last night,glad to see it we have only had a few so far.
Love the poem, reminds me of Minnesota, LOL!
Stay warm!
it looks like you got what we got last Friday night. Only about 4 inches, but the most snow we've had all winter. It's pretty much gone now, but definitely no robin sightings here in NY yet. Too cold!!!
Have a wonderful week ahead!

I'm not much of a "winter" person so I'm Happy about not getting much snow this winter. Although it's trying to snow today (Good Grief, it's March for Pete's sake.)
Had to chuckle at the Poem. My hubby is from N. Dakota so he can certainly relate.
