Here are some pictures in case you didn’t get any snow where you live. It was tough shoveling our back deck. Had to do it in shifts because of the depth and drifts over the past few weeks.
We’ve had more than two feet of snow this winter. Hopefully clear days are ahead and spring is not far behind. The ice dams are starting to melt ensuring there will not be any leaks inside as temps are beginning to climb.
The one thing I like about the snow is that all the animal tracks are more evident. By the multitude of tracks in these photos you can see there have been many deer, rabbits, and all kinds of birds including turkeys all over our yard.
Hope you are having great weather where you live. I’m praying for spring!
Sorry I haven’t been blogging lately. I am working on three books, a children’s book, a short story collection, and Book 5 of the Davey & Derek Junior Detectives Series. I hope to publish all three this year. More books coming after these.
Stay tuned for more information on publication dates of these and other books from Jemsbooks. Go back to http://Jemsbooks.com for all my books.
Thank you for stopping by.
Reading Gives You Wings to Fly!
Blessings & hugs!
Janice

Thanks anyway, but I have quite enough snow. I live in Nova Scotia, Canada. Enough said.
Send some of that snow our way please, Janice. We’ve had hardly any in the UK, although it has been a lot colder than usual. We hit 65F yesterday. Back to low 40s by Friday.
Good luck with the upcoming books. Sounds like you’re a very busy lady.
That is a LOT of snow! We’ve had a few squalls but lately the weather has been beautiful. We’re going to hit the 70s this week—so bizarre for February, but I’m a spring/summer gal, so I’m loving it.
The white stuff is certainly pretty though. It’s just the shoveling that does me in!
We got lots of snow, but not as much as you did. It must be a big challenge to shovel all of that heavy white stuff!. Hope spring comes soon.
Share some of that snow with the rest of us.
Looks amazing Janice.. hard work but a winter wonderland.. xxx
It was but now with temps soaring into the 60’s-70 it is almost gone! We are having some unusually warm temps for February. It’s usually still cold at this time. Supposed to be getting cooler again though. Crazy! Xo ❤
We are having March winds.. with a vengeance and double the usual February rainfall.. I am hoping that it heralds and early spring and hot summer (one can dream). xxx
Lovely photos, writing indoors sounds like a good pursuit when the weather is like that 😊. Do you write first long hand or type your ideas up straight away?
I type everything as it comes to me. I write off the cuff then edit, edit, edit! 😆
We had our first snow last night. It is already gone. Many thanks for the follow. Returning to blogging later this week.😊
