Well Fall was nice, but I can't remember what day it happened. It was in the high 80's on Friday, today the high will be in the low 30's. Here are some pics out the back of the house.

WOW, tac ... just, WOW! Its hot here still, enough that my family is still swimming (in my SIL's pool when she's not home, gone to work, shhhhhh! :smirky: )
Still and all, it looks beautiful (although I know looks can be decieving!) Only seen snow (and lived in it) once, when we moved to North Carolina for my father to teach Criminology at Wilson Technical Institute. Woke up one morn to find my mother's car iced to the driveway -- had to get an extension cord and use the hair dryer just to get her key in the car door lock!
Sorry, I don't envy you the snow and the cold. I am an pure-bred Suth'ner ... anything below 80 degrees is FREEZING to me, LOL.

That's OK, Homes. Keep your hurricanes and tornadoes. At least when the snow leaves in the spring, my home, car and belongings are still there.

That's gorgeous, I would LOVE to have REAL winters again, Here ins Washington, we are lucky if we get a dusting of snow in the winter.
Lucky you Tac, I LOVE winter!!
Nice pics Tac, Send some o that snow my way willya please?
From what I can remember i was told if snow stays on the tree limbs it's gonna be there for a while.
Looks like you MIGHT get ice on those trees the way they're bowed over.
Stay warm!

The trees didn't come through in very good shape. I lost a 40+foot elm out front.
