Welcome Anna's Pics readers. I stumbled upon her blog last week and saw the yellow challenge and remembered about a post I had done one Sunday on all the yellows I saw during a walk in the neighborhood. Each Sunday, I post pictures of things I see on a walk and tag them neighborhood. Thanks again for visiting ThirteenEleven.

Some more yellows from posts pasts.... here.

Flurries...

They have been warning us all week about the pending snow, and this morning there are flurries. Just when the Pear tree is breaking out in the first blooms.

Guess no pear preserves again this year.

I don't see the "Snow Storm of the Century" happening this March as it did in '93.
It is sticking to the deck and trees, but the high is suppose to be 40 today.

In '93, The blizzard here, was much like what is described in this link from Alabama.

I was in college at Auburn about 45 minutes away, the ever so wise weather folks kept telling us we were not going to have snow, but just a little bit further North, a couple of inches were predicted.

Like I've told you before, us Southern folks get a little excited about snow.

That night I packed a bag and traveled here to spend the night with my family. The next morning we awoke to the muffled thunder and at least a foot of snow. The snow kept coming down .....

OK!! It is snow here now, not flurries, hard driving snow...7:36a.m.

I remember the horses in the field across the street from our house kept running, kicking up sprays of the powder behind them. I also remember my sister and I going out to take a picture of those horses and she fell in a snow drift up past her waist.

Southern girls no nothing about snow drifts....I just saw my sister shrink 3 feet before my eyes.

We proceeded to get the silly giggles and ..........she will have to tell you the rest....

Breaking News.........

For my Birthday..........

We have SNOW..... ( we also really have to work on that part of the lawn....)

WHAT snow in Georgia!?!?!?!
OK.. it was just a couple inches...No biggie... but remember it hasn't snowed here in years.... a little north of here had some snow the other day, but not us...
WOOPIE!!!!

Puppy had lots of fun. He hasn't seen snow since well......he was a puppy.

No mom, it is not sticking to the roads.....just the deck.

Whacha diggin for?

Puppy is wondering if there are any good bones left by the P.O.'s in that dirt, and if there is he has first choice. Why isn't he helping? He can dig?

Yes, we are leveling off the area under the deck, before it is built, so hopefully it will be close to the same elevation at each side of the house. There is always something to do before you can complete the task at hand. We are using the dirt to fill the big hole in the back yard where a tree fell years ago. The night work continues, and slowly progressing.

This ladder is our back steps for now.

Full Moon

While walking out with Puppy in ThirteenEleven's backyard

(aka = Kudzu Jungle),

we looked up and saw this.......

a little closer with the pecan tree in the foreground.......

What a beautiful full moon lighting up the clouds left over from the little bit of rain we had that day. I should have taken the time to get the ol' tripod and maybe the pics could have been a little steadier. A slow shutter speed digital with low light definitely is a case for blurry shots. But these two out of about 128... ( no really about 17) turned out O.K. We'll call the blurriness... creative photography.
