Interestingly weird flare, for lack of a better term, from the sun rays behind the spruce tree. I'd never be able to create that individual block radiating out if I wanted to do it on purpose, of course. Still, weird but kinda cool.
Not sure what time I took this one on Tuesday, but probably early afternoon as I set off to mail a few things at the post office.
This one is of the Talkeetnas, taken around noon on Wed.
Backing out of the zoom version above, this is the full view of the road and then the Talkeetna Mts. beyond. The winds were picking up and even tho' I couldn't see the flying snow at this point, I could feel it stinging my face as it hit.

We got a couple inches of snow and, no, they haven't plowed the road yet.
Front yard with its pristine new snow covering.
Taken looking back from the end of the driveway.
One of the reflectors alongside the driveway to ensure neither the snow plow guy nor I with my snow blower wind up clearing the yard instead of just the driveway.
The significance of this otherwise boring, odd photo is what it does NOT show... the step that is supposed to be there. Although we only got a couple inches last night, the winds that seemed to inevitably follow each snowfall we got created a pretty impressive drift up along the south side of the house. Normally it doesn't do this, knowing it's more annoying to me to block the garage door itself, so figured it was worth a picture. The red is the bottom of my coat, btw.
Although it never really intensified, thought the sunset behind the spruce and trees was a lovely way to end my outdoors wanderings today.
