Winter on the Farm

It's winter time on the farm. Last summer, my sister and I installed some security cameras to help keep an eye on things, you know, despicable characters who want to take or damage my stuff, as well as animals who have every right to wander by--and are welcome to do so. Well, Mother Nature likes to take the opportunity to show some of Her splendor, and as a fan, I believe I should share it with you.

The light from a full moon reflecting on the snow is always impressive:

Full Moon Over the Dome

I'm not sure if the shine on the house is a light or just moon reflection.

Then, the sun comes up:

Sunrise Over the Dome

It's always nice to see a picture of a new snow-covered area before

any people have a chance to wander or drive through.

Just in case anyone is interested, on the other side of the house are a couple great sledding hills. And, if you go back to earlier pictures from the balcony, you can see another, even bigger, hill to the north.

And then there are the cross-country skiing opportunities...
