The view out my window

Post by fiatben »

Well, we got a pretty good dusting of snow yesterday. As a result, this was the view out the dining room window this morning at breakfast. I enjoy it, and thought I'd share with my favorite forum.

Great view, a light dusting of snow is always a beautiflu sight to see. Thanks for sharing with us.
I keep finding little windows on this forum, that I don't really know what they do. So sometimes I experiment. Probably shouldn't do that, I know in my shop it can get me into trouble.

Its beautiful... but to be honest I'm glad to be looking at it through your window than my own. Over half the reason I chose to live in phoenix is because of that white stuff. :D

I wish I had that for my view!

We had snow over night, maybe an inch or so. Total for the year less then 2". By the of the day it was more bare spots then snow covered ones.

Had this hawk stop by, he wasn't impressed either. Hard to see the smirk on its beak but it was there.

Actually, we don't get that much snow, and it rarely is on the ground more than a day or two. The exception being the 18-22" snow we got last February which took a bit longer to melt off. I've been to Phoenix (multiple times) and I think I'll take an occasional dusting of snow over 110+°F in the shade all summer long any time. :p

Oddly enough, I've come to enjoy the heat. Much easier for me to handle than the snow shoveling and sub zero temps I grew up with. (Milwaukee,WI)

The view shows that your dining is placed at a perfect place in your home to get such scenes outside and enjoy food with a nice mood.
