Frozen Pigg River, and Al did it!

Just so you don't get too jealous....

I do live at Latitude 59! So those great photos... were taken at NOON-THIRTY!!

I should add, one of my younger kids, maybe a month back (must have been out of a book he was reading) , said "The sun sets in the West???"

I told him yeah. ... if you live down south. Here though, it both rises and sets in the south.

Alaskan don't your kids get frostbite walking around like that? I got frostbite just from seeing the photo.

We've been seeing single digits below 0 , it's supposed to warm up to nearly freezing in a couple days, so it can snow some more. Oh joy or words to that effect

I don't know why they don't keel over and die. I know I would.

Sorry about your cold... and more snow coming. We should all move to Fiji.

Funny, I never thought about that before. Guess your DS and I both learned something new.

We went there for our 50th anniversary. Maybe for our 75th ?

You are taking all of us with you right??

Are the Alpacas spending any time in the barn or the alley?

Oddly, ALL of the time. I guess they have given up thinking there is anything to eat out there. Thankfully they still mostly go out to their pile to poop, only had to pick up once a couple of days ago. There was a nice drift in the alley that blew through their open door. The snow came in on the NW wind, turned > 90° and travelled 15' before it hit the west wall. The door is held open about 18" and they push it as needed to come and go. Must be they didn't like the resistance of the snow on the outside of the door. Of course that didn't stop them from going out when I came in to fork out the poop. I guess they are still afraid I'm going to trap them and do horrible nasty things ... like TOUCH them.

Maybe they'll go out when it hits mid 40's Thursday and into Friday. Or maybe not, probably be too warm for them
