Eskimos have dozens of words for snow, not that I know any of them.

But there sure are different types. We saw a couple yesterday when the storm started with big flakes then later turned to what looked like heavy white rain sorts of flake.

Our road is black and the drifts are white, just like a stripe speeding by. Birdfeeders have jelly bean-shaped white snow hats and skinny deer are wandering through looking for food. They must be desperate because they rarely leave snow tracks around here. It’s awfully early for them to be desperate.

I’ll load up a photo of one of those deer if the pic came out.

Wonder if over population is the problem for the deer?? They should not be thin now- too early as you said.

I just thought maybe a little thin after the rut?? They do a lot of running.
