Thanks you guys. I wish you could come with me to Prescott, and see for yourselves. It is so peaceful.

By the way, while getting pics - I could not resist getting this one. Prescott draws a lot of tourists, and evidently these familiar friends were checking the court house out as well. Evidently Mac wanted to get some pics too, instead of leaving.

I wouldn't mind visiting Prescott, AZ at some point, if I ever stop by Arizona again in the future. The closest I've been to that community was going through the I-17 route between Flagstaff and Phoenix (quite a shift in altitude by about 5,000+ feet).

Beautiful sights there, Ducky, thank you so much for sharing! Sorry for not replying last night. My parents' internet went down before I got a chance to see them, and haven't been able to come back until now. Haha, I love that last one. Yeah, Mac's an artistic one, I can certainly see him wanting to take it all in some more.

Want more pictures of snow?


My parents' back yard on Christmas Day. We got about another foot of the stuff, which fell all night Christmas Eve and most of the day Christmas Day. It was amazing. The wire fence thing is a rabbit pen, it's three feet tall. And the white cage is the rabbit cage. Look at all the snow that piled up on the water bottle! The rabbit by the way, was safe inside the house in his indoor cage. You can also see here a section of the wood fence that blew down in that wind store we had a week ago.


My car on Christmas Day. Buried. Again. Look how deep it is around the base! And I was already parked on 8-10 inches of packed snow already on the street.


This drift where the wind had blown the snow against the house is about 6 feet deep. It's completely buried the bushes and even the sapling growing in front of the house (you can see a bit of one of the bushes here).


My dad's car, stuck in the driveway. Not going anywhere for a while.

I don't even think we reached much below freezing last night, and the snow is melting fast. Though I'm sad to see it go, I have to admit I'm a bit relieved as at least it will no longer be a nightmare driving around now. Now we're just worried about flooding.

*takes a dive into the deep snow*

Sounds like the snow you had on the ground is becoming a memory now, then, eh? Hopefully, there won't be any flooding in your area.

Brrrrrrr Ord! I hope you're wearing many layers.

Yeah, it's going fast. The drifts are getting shorter. There are even patches of grass reappearing. But I'm just glad to see asphalt again. Although there's still a lot of slush in neighborhoods and parking lots. Including mine. I'm still too scared to park in my reserved parking spot until it melts even more. Slush can be just as slippery as ice.

Today was so warm that aside from the piles created by snowplows, we have virtually no snow left. Water everywhere and some slush but little snow.

I think I'll awaken the thread again to share that I got another fish!



I haven't officially thought of a name for him yet, right now I'm still calling him "Fishy" like I called my last one for most of his life. I'm kind of thinking about naming him "Fishy Cracker", which is the same name my last one had. But even though my last one officially had the name merely a few months before he departed to the fish's happy hunting ground, it was still his name during that short time, and I don't really want to use it again. So I'm open to suggestions.



Here's a better shot at his fins. He's another white Betta Fish (aka Siamese Fighting Fish), like my last one was, but he's not as white as my last one. His fins are kind of dark, but they're cool looking because the ends of his fins turn white and almost transparent.

My furry niece, though I love her to death, is NOT getting a hold of this one!!!
