That craft show had the longest hours!<BR/><BR/>Pablo, yeah we are still seeing the ducks almost every day. Maybe they'll breed nearby. Oh, and I was trying to look up the name for something - the hypnic jerk, aka myoclonic twitch - when I found a link to an article with that sentence.<BR/><BR/>Annie, I hadn't heard of it before, but I'm sure glad I don't have that problem!<BR/><BR/>Sweetpea, I am so totally late making the blog rounds recently, sorry! I'll check it out.<BR/><BR/>Cyndy, not here, for sure! I think our water levels were just too low here.<BR/><BR/>CG, that's my favorite comment of the week! I know exactly what you mean. :)<BR/><BR/>Randy, y'all probably got more snow than we did this year!<BR/><BR/>FC, well you're the only one I can pretty much count on outdoing with this amount of snow. :)<BR/><BR/>SG, it's REALLY been a long time since we've had any accumulation at all.<BR/><BR/>Thanks Terrell!

Yes, not only does snow "stick" in the north, but it often stays and accumulates for a long time. :-)Shady Gardenerhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/05007816271406393818noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-10013142.post-72553016099564571482008-03-02T10:50:00.000-06:002008-03-02T10:50:00.000-06:00It's so exciting out in Kansas that our southern events pale in comparison ...<BR/><BR/>I find your snow fascinating and a thing of envy. A nice cool winter here, but nary a flurry of snow.<BR/>That pond looks wonderful, mine is still bone dry.

Makes me wonder if some nocturnal heart attack deaths are a result of the "elevated heart rate" and "difficulty breathing". <BR/><BR/>I'm glad to see some rain has fallen and refilled some of the basin - we hope for rain here in Austin, too, but not on the weekend of Spring Fling.<BR/><BR/>Annie at the Transplantable RoseAnnie in Austinhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/14662139490401110432noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-10013142.post-22157163704715567312008-02-27T07:06:00.000-06:002008-02-27T07:06:00.000-06:00The snow business is almost as exciting as FC's rock collecting.<BR/><BR/>Nice to hear about your wood ducks though.pablohttp://www.roundrockjournal.comnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-10013142.post-46622338383039595082008-02-27T06:03:00.000-06:002008-02-27T06:03:00.000-06:00It feels like we've had a LOT of rain, though they say we're still not up to "normal" even if you're just counting from the first of January.<BR/><BR/>KF, I guess y'all are getting some of this too. :)<BR/><BR/>Karl, whoa! That's pretty wet.<BR/><BR/>Tom, oh yeah, dusting! They don't even get to say that much around here. The Wood ducks breed in this area, but I think there is too much activity right here for them.<BR/><BR/>Thanks Kerri!<BR/><BR/>Nickie, well you have to realize that this is about as much as we've seen in... you know I can't even remember how many years! I know in the last 4. I believe it's only snowed more than this once in the last 10 or 15 years. And it used to snow at least an inch or two every year.<BR/><BR/>Cathy, I wish you could too! I know people in other parts of the country and Canada are probably pretty sick of snow right now. :)<BR/><BR/>Kris, I'll bet! :) It wasn't too cold the night of the eclipse. The nights have varied a lot lately - some below freezing and others in the 50s. Hard to know what to do with the comforter at night!Ruralityhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/06616461213179182660noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-10013142.post-82371280861826518472008-02-26T20:56:00.000-06:002008-02-26T20:56:00.000-06:00Our snow is "sticking"!! Glad you're getting much-needed rain. I loved the photos of the pond - very pretty. Great eclipse photos too - we had a clear viewing here - but it was super cold out so had to watch in snippets.krishttp://www.blogger.com/profile/13717829287358693407noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-10013142.post-36916910527564670192008-02-26T19:47:00.000-06:002008-02-26T19:47:00.000-06:00Wish I could ship some of my white stuff your way.<BR/><BR/>I've watched the rain coming your way.
