We got snowed!



Eagan received over 15 inches (38 cm) of snow in the last few days! Finally, the snow stopped, the sun came out and we saw blue skies! I snapped these photos from my 2nd floor office balcony and windows on Tuesday morning.

You sure did. Glad you could use more. We had enough. Now it is mostly ice.

These are very attractive winter images. Fresh snow is so pretty. It enhances almost any photo if there is sufficient contrast. This post is very well done.

Leif, thanks for stopping by and leaving a comment on my first Barn Charm entry. Plenty of barns to photo in S.D.!! We also got another foot of snow, just when we were enjoying a major melt,dang! Now I'm off to see where Eagan is, I swear it sounds familiar, or am I confusing it with Eagan SD?

I know you are getting tired of snow, but these are pretty winter snow photos. At least you can enjoy that much.

I just love that first photo. So beautiful!

Wow, great shots. You make us feel guilty; we were complaining about it being 75 on Monday and then dropping into the 20's overnite and only hitting the 40's the last couple of days. It looks beautiful but we are so over shoveling.

Love the barn store in the previous post.
Saw the article in the paper about your blog. A star is born!
We got just about that much snow or more yesterday and today---we aren't used to snow here specially in the end of Feb. MB

I am sure you starting to get excited about spring and the end of the snow season.

It is a bit colder even here, but nothing like 38cm of snow!

Bergson said...

I'd like to have so much snow next week

Gabriele said...

Sehr schöne Bilder von eurer Schneelandschaft!

Beautiful pics, Leif! The detail of the snow on the roof is fantastic, have never seen such a thing.

Shannon said...

Wow, those are gorgeous shots! I actually felt giddy looking at them. And here I was excited about our 7 inches! I can't imagine having that much.

Snow?!
In Minny-so-ta?!
What a concept!
How rare!
Have your children ever seen snow before now?!
The inquiring mind of «Louis la Vache» wants to know!

I love that second photo with the snow and icicles hanging down over the roof eaves - wow, it looks cold!!

zakton said...

Great photos of snow. Something that we can't have in a tropical region like our.

Very pretty! Those trees look like Christmas cake decorations, all covered in frosting.
