Black..White...some Color...Macomb Co. snow scenes in January..

Diane...also heard that just  1/2 hr ago, that Hawaii does have mountain snow--but NOT which of the states doesn't have any.  the Boots--yeah they are fun and generally keep the snow away from the socks & feet.
Thanks for our comment. Have a great rest of the week.

Jason...I like the orange color & if you remember to fold the pants & pull the socks up over them-the boots work well.  Though Macomb Co. received the most [according to the Macomb Daily] it was easy to deal with.  Did you see some of those scenes from other states East of us--not so good. 
Since we do need the amounts of moisture for the Great Lakes, I am pulling for Rain in the Spring--until the Spring.
Thanks for your comment Have a great rest of the week.

Steve...yes it is a lot of snow;  does the snow-melt help with dryness out there or is it too high up for general help?  Often wondered if the springs, river-lets, Rivers do gain from the 'high-up melt'.
Thanks for your comment. Have a great rest of the week.

Laura...Awe-heck,here I thought the boots made us kindred souls; mine have Black laces -yours have Black laces; thus we match. Actually, these came from Wal-mart and were in 3 colors other than Orange.
Still think that -other in age- we are kindred souls [ I / we are old older than you ]

Looks like our snow has stopped until this weekend; hope that you can say the same in your area.
Thanks for your comment. Have a great Friday & weekend.

Ellen...well, thank you. I do use www.picnik.com for the majority of edits; had photo shop on other XP computer, but it would not transfer [?] to Windows 7. I personally was trained in Art before all the inclusion of Graphics and Photography. Present day art students have so much more opportunities than any class I taught. [one reason why I would & could not teach anymore--students deserve a full-service teacher.]
Thanks for your comment.  Have a good rest of the week.

Roy...I love that your comments across AR always include a "floral" addition to your words.  Is this one a 'grass' or 'Fall-effect flower'..whichever it is, the Greens, Golds, the curves & the background shapes all make it one great photo; actually, I could envision this enlarged & mounted on a frame.  You should open a line of such items.
Can you not see this 30" X 50" hanging on a wall.  Thanks for your comment. Glad that your ares was spared the gib snow. Have a good rest if the week.

Cara....Jacksonville gets it at times; but, you know that statement was written & stated, but NO one ever named that 50th state.  Probably could Bing, Ask.com or Google for the answer, but how to ask the pertinent question.
Thanks for your comment, I may have to follow through now--as I thought Hawaii, but the mountain areas there had snow. 
Have a great rest of the week.
Barb

Cara.  you are correct; see the comment by me below.

The Winner of the 50th state name is ...".Cara Marcella"
did Google it and on the Long Island Press.com site in a short article, Florida is the state that had no snow on the ground.  Good for you, Cara.

Dan...THAT is the $64,000 question, isn't it.  Here, we keep saying that it is for the levels in the Great Lakes, but since these Lakes are also by other states & countries. let them supply the moisture needed. LOL
Here in Macomb Co. MI--we are getting snow--1-2 " at a time; with 'down-times in between'; then more 1-2" increments.  Sounds good right, but at the end there is still measurable snow. 
Other states get theirs all at once --OK. for three different snowfalls in three weeks. Bad news. there.
Thanks for your comment. Have a good Friday & a great weekend.

Joyce....sorry I'm so late on this; thanks for your comment. Could take the cooler than usual climate right about now--but it doesn't look good for Michigan at this point in time. LOL   Really, we are looking forward to a move to FL, but selling our Home comes first.  Things seem to be moving forward here, so who knows.  Have a good rest fo the week.
