More Icicles

At the dentist's office... some very cool trees with ice dripping off of them.

Winter in Kansas...

I've been in many ice storms, but I can't remember one where there were icicles on all the trees.

A tree in my front yard that will offer less shade next summer (took these while I was home for lunch):
And a few random icy limbs of the mimosa (took these this morning before I left):
And, of course, couldn't have an ice storm without a windshield shot:

Fun with PhotoShop

This is the first ever image on Sea of Ks that's been PhotoShopped (you really have to blow it up to full size to get the full affect). It's actually a photo of the "ice stalagmite" (which I know is impossible, KC :o) ) in the foreground. I just thought it was funny that there was an "icicle" sticking *up* from the ground. Unfortunately the light wasn't great. Here's the pre-adjustment photo:

A Sirius Homecoming

In the car on the way home.
Interested in the outside.

First glimpse of the new digs.
Lex's feelings on the matter.

(Yes, I'll get tired of the pun. Soon, I promise... but not yet. :) )

His and Hers?!?

At the Tractor Supply store (long story), I noticed that they're now making pedal tractors in pink. Just what I would have wanted as a child--a "Miss Farmer" pink tractor... not.
And, here's our first snow:

Better late...

Remember the wine I bought on our Oskaloosa adventure? Well, I finally got a corkscrew so that I can open it. :)

AND, it's our first real SNOW. :) Maybe pics later. :)
