A Happy Robin

Floyd "captured" this fluffed-up robin enjoying our hawthorne berries in spite of the layer of ice coating everything this morning.

Lovely couple


Alan and Grace attended the Witmer Inc. Employee Appreciation Dinner. (Of course, Grace was busy telling her employees what a good job they do. I'm sure they appreciate her, too!)

Another Happy Daddy

More Snow overnight



We had 4-5 inches of snow overnight on top of the week's collection.......not our usual OR weather! It seemed troublesome all week, managing snow removal and staffing adjustments at work, but today I'm home and can actually enjoy the beauty of it all.

Looks like it might stay around for awhile!!!

The Arctic Blast 2008


The Arctic Blast actually showed up in McMinnville.....serious snow started late afternoon, and a few hours later we had 4-5". It's dusty, dry snow......not the typical OREGON wet snow.
