More fresh snow to enjoy but some shoveling required

 We woke to another beautiful morning with 3-4 inches of fresh snow on the ground. So, again, I could not resist pulling out the iPhone and snapping photos of our local landscape in the early morning, at Parc National du Bic in mid-morning, and then more photos of our local landscape in the late afternoon.  Our dog Woody is part of the local landscape, so of course, he appears, but not in the Parc because dogs aren't allowed. This will change in summer 2019 when some trails in the Park will be open for dogs. Woody is looking forward to that.


Early morning view of our street and yard
with moon overhead and Woody waiting patiently

An early morning snowplow created this wall of snow behind our car;
to get out, some fairly serious snow shoveling was needed


Side view of our  house from street; Woody standing guard


Close up of Woody at 10 years young
View out living room window with farm house and barn in distance; a favorite view 


View of nearby farm house and barns

Another favorite view:
from upstairs window of house looking at outbuildings and snow covered landscape;
the tall leafless trees are Lombardy poplars


Our storage building with Parc National du Bic in background

The snow drift along our storage building keeps getting larger

Looking toward our neighbor's house on right and the horse barn on left at sunrise

No horses visible at sunrise;
probably hunkered down in barn
Fresh snow on spruce trees
