Winter Bridge

Here's one from our trip up the mountain to Helen Hunt Falls the other day.

I took about a bazillion shots... but this one was my favorite!

The World's Ugliest Snow-troll... and other Winter-time Adventures

So... we got TONS of snow over Thanksgiving Weekend (close to 5 or 6 inches). It seriously snowed for an entire day! I was so excited!

This is what I woke up to....

He's such a stinker... but he was a little premature in his assault and the Glass Door was still closed. Foiled again Batman... Muahahahahahahahah!!!!

Unfortunately I wasn't quite so lucky with the little one. She's cute... but way more viscious! She actually came into the house and pelted me with snowballs in the middle of my own living room while I was still in my PJ's and slippers! Little Monster!!!!

And, without further delay, here is the World's Ugliest Snowtroll.
The snow was so fluffy that we had a heck of a time getting it to stick together. Rolling individual balls didn't work... they just crumbled and fell apart... so we resorted to making a snow mountain with the shovel and trying to carve a snowman out of it.
You can see how well that worked out. We decided he looked much more like a troll then a snowman so that's what we called him.

And this one is my favorite! I like the falling snow. The effect was created with Textures in Photoshop.
