Snow storms in late Oct are not uncommon in Colorado. We live at 6500 feet above sea level but are not in the mountains. |
Pikes Peak is less than 30 miles west of us and protects us from real bad storms. The western slope is where all the ski areas are. |
Brussel Sprout plants |
They are close to the fence. There is no wind so the snow is just staying on the wires of the deer protection fence. |
Maple Tree. We are worried about the weight of the wet snow on the tree that still has leaves. We lost several branches during a similar storm in 2008. |
1 of 2 of our 70' Colorado Blue Spruce trees in the front yard. Yellow framing it is another maple tree. |
Pretty huh!? |
It is pretty, but I'm glad that for now the snow is there and not here!
