As I look through old shots............

Hollyhocks in my back yard before those wabbits ate em all.

Lately a lot of Mylotters have mentioned snow. I love looking at photos of snow especially when it's on those beautiful pine trees in those pine forests, you know, like the ones on greeting cards but honestly I'm happy I live here where snow is rare and has not lasted more than 2 weeks since I've lived here, that'd be 57 years. But since some of you are facing months of snow I thought I'd post a shot I found of the hollyhocks I used to have before those dang wabbits ate em all. No wonder bugs was hunted, silly wabbit. Are you expecting snow this year? Will you take photos of it? Here's hoping all of you are warm and safe if it starts snowing.

I am most definitely expecting snow this year and it seems as though it wantss to consistently come and go this winter x.x So annoying! I wish we only had two weeks of snow here.

I don't even want 2 days let alone 2 weeks and I'd be totally in hibernation if I got snow for as long as you guys do.

@rebelann I'm definitely jealous of your lack of snow, however your state's overall climate is well out of my comfort zone in summer :p

This part is very different though @RiggsMortis it's mostly dry here so when it's hot it isn't muggy.

We haven't had snow but we will eventually get it. There will be storms and blizzards and extreme cold temps. Not looking forward to it at all.

Oh that makes me shiver, I'm so glad we rarely get snow or truly freezing weather.

I feel that way for sure this time of year @Happy2BeMe but come summer most people would rather run from the heat we get.

We had lots of rain and ice. A wee bit of snow. The cold sucked! The area near my mama's house was way worse than ours. Made it difficult for her to get out and see daddy at the hospital.

Oh how awful, your poor mom dealing with so much illness. And then you with 3 kids trying to help, that just can't be easy for anyone.

Here in New Zealand only parts of the country have snow,, and not where I live. We've just started summer here.

We don't usually get much snow, and quite honestly I can do without it. It looks nice, but it makes getting about difficult. Love your shot.

Oh wow, what a surprise. I just thought there would be snow in that area because of the lush greenery, usually lush areas get the four seasons with all the rains and snows to go with it. I'm glad you like my photo but now I understand why Bugs always made that hunter so mad.

I hope to never see snow again! I'm getting out of Dodge in three days to avoid it. It may be pristine and pretty to look at, but the bitter cold, hail, sleet, and red noses are no fun.

I too look at old photos of snow and ice. I only get to see but no experience of having snowflakes all over me. This photo was sent by my (Indian) friend from the US

Expecting snow? Yes. Looking forward to snow? No. When it happens we'll deal with it.

I do that in the summer with the heat. I guess it works both ways.
