It has been snowing really hard for approximately 16 hours and there are no signs of it letting up.
Although my area of Buena Vista, Colorado tends
to get frequent snowstorms, it is rare for there to be a huge accumulation
of snow from one storm, for we're coming close to three feet of snow already.
I decided to venture outside for awhile to take some snow photos.
Here was the late morning view of my two cars practically covered in snow. |

The snow was coming down hard! |

An area of cottonwood trees covered in snow. |

Two pictures of a nearby creek. |

Driving around, here are two shots of a main road in my town. |

A snowy neighborhood road. |

On the south end of town, I captured these two
photos that read "Buena Vista" of some sort. I parked on a nearby neighborhood
street and trudged throw two to three feet deep snow to reach these signs along Highway 24.
The two bottom photos are the southerly and northerly views from where these
welcome signs are. Lots of snow! :)
Visibility was terrible, and there the towering Sawatch Mountains to the west were hidden. |
 |
Our town has one traffic light. I usually do my best to take short cuts
and detours to get around the traffic light, but I thought snapping pictures of it might be interesting. |
 |
I did not get a photo of myself in the snow. So later on, after I had returned home,
I put my slippers on and stood outside to get one token picture of myself. Yes, I am wearing shorts today while indoors. :) |
