Now that's penguin country.

playing with the horses again!! :-)

no snowball fights for me my friend. We're just finishing up a blizzard here and I'm not planning to stick my nose outside!

I'll play. I love snowball fights! But first do we have to help brush the ice off the horses? I think they might need it, but the hay will make me sneeze.

Neva, I missed the part where we have to bring our own snow. Man, there's a lot of rules here, lately.

Very beautiful, M. Thanks. We saw a snowflake or two in the air hereabouts today, so I suppose our Winter's poised to make an entrance soon.

gorgeous. I am from Florida. I never saw snow until I was 23. I loved the way the world grows quiet in the snow. Have fun!

Doug: feel that? i just beaned ya with a virtual snowball, bub (and you know i can do it -- after all, i'm looking at 12 hits with that Paper Toss game. how many for you, again???) rules? we don't need no stinkin' rules.

by the way Monika -- that top picture is truly breathtaking. hope you have a wonderful time in the country, my friend! xox

*thows snowball at Neva*

Yeah, it's started! Don't worry Doug, I've got your back. How dare Neva do that when you weren't expecting it.

*throws snowball at Doug*

LOL! Ha ha, and I got you too!

*ducks behind a horse*

Beautiful! The colors are awesome.

 
At 11:48, Blogger Doug The Una said...

Morgan, you fell right into my trap. I gave all the horses a laxative.

*throws snowball at Neva, accidentally hits Actonbell*

The top photo is new since I signed in and I agree with Neva, the colors are amazing.

Anyone wish to give me the lyrics for "Home On The Range" in Icelandic? Or even German?

;)

 
At 13:39, Anonymous Anonymous said...

Are there words in Icelandic for Deer and Buffalo? If so... why???

*snowball at Minka*

Snow! [going back inside]

 
At 14:19, Blogger Minka said...

*comes driving with the tractor and three kids in tow, all armed with snowballs*

Be afraid, be very afraid!

and so it begins...

I would love to have a snowball fight... yet... NO SNOW here! :(

Beautiful Pics...

 
At 15:35, Anonymous Anonymous said...

OK, so maybe the fauna's too depauperate for "Home On the Range." How about "High Noon"?

Oh. Wait. Arctic Circle ...

It's alright, Minka, you can tell us that the beautiful sunset picture was taken at 12 o'clock, um, low.

;)

*gets hit in head with snowball*

Hey! Who threw that!?!

*throws snowball at Terry*

 
At 22:34, Blogger Minka said...

Doug: 2 minutes out of the game for throwing snow at the audience!

 
At 22:46, Anonymous Anonymous said...

We got snow too! That bottom picture is absolutely sublime, dear. Love it. Now, watch out...here comes one right at your head!

cindra, thanks for the warning, *ducks eloquently, turns and aims for her legs*

Doug, turns around, gives him the look for a minute while smilingly pulling the red card. Off my snowfield with you, right this minute! There are some dishes that are calling your name...

 
At 23:02, Blogger Alana said...

so purty!!! I'm in and I'm warning you I played softball for 13 years and I have a pretty good arm!

So maybe you shouldn't send Doug inside too soon!

*shivers*

Thankfully my virtual mittens are warm, but I've got snow in my coat now. Who was offering the coaco?

 
At 12:29, Anonymous Anonymous said...

Oh, Minka! Such beauty you've captured! Thank you for sharing this beautiful land with us! D :)

 
At 16:50, Blogger Minka said...

Square, that´s right...I probably could use him as a shield :)

Morgan, I believe you just did :) It´s teh way it works around here ;)

Diane, I agree and I am gla dyou like it although probabbly very different from California!

 
At 20:52, Blogger Jamie Dawn said...

Don't eat the yellow snow!

I'm shivering just looking at those pictures!!

My nose is red and my lips are quivering and the ends of my fingers are blue.

Lovely photos!

*Nyah nyah - sticks out tongue the frosty beagle up to his ears in powder... "beagles can't throw worth beans... although they CAN smell a good bone under the snow".

 
At 01:35, Anonymous Anonymous said...

*hops out from behind large bush, looks around for someone to hit with the "perfect" snowball she just fashioned. realizes everyone has gone inside for cocoa. shrugs shoulders and smacks self in face*

d'oh!

 
At 08:38, Blogger Alana said...

Ohhh, since everyone has moved on to your next post, let me take this opportunity to pelt Doug with snowballs! I have a good arm and he undisputibly deserves a good pelting. Feel free o join in without guilt...and don't worry, I'm certain he'll survive...

 
At 23:02, Blogger birdwoman said...

it makes me cold to just look at that. Happy with the global warming here - hasn't dropped much below freezing.

 
At 13:51, Blogger Minka said...

Jamie, *throws her a gorotex outfit* it is all about the layering of clothes :)

terry, do you think it is mean we are all ganging up on our favourite beagle? I mean his floppy ears harly make it above teh snow :)

neva, that´s just so sad! :)

Square, if you say so...any excuse really to take his ego down a notch ...

birdwoman, I think I´d miss snow too much in teh winter time. I need it!
