A few recent photos

Today I got around to pulling a few photos off a little camera we use around the house.  It's been a while since I cleared the memory card out.

I did find a few cool pictures on it though, and thought it would be good to share them.

Below is a picture taken from Schweitzer Mountain Ski Resort.  At the foot of the mountain is the town of Sandpoint, ID and the northernmost end of Lake Pend O'reille (pronounced Ponderay).  The sky looks threatening, and it was.  About 5 minutes after I took this picture, really heavy snow started falling.

 



 This is a look out our front door following the last big snowstorm we had this year.  We cut a little path off the left side of the walkway so we can reach the satellite dish to clear snow off it.  Franky I was ready for winter to be over with BEFORE this last foot of snow hit.



 The back yard.  No shoveling required!!!

 

A Northern Flicker (a woodpecker), in for lunch.  He wasn't keen on having his picture taken and kept ducking behind the tree.
