Anyway, Thursday's forecast is more of the same ... so we thought that we'd show you a place FAR COLDER than where you live. Our friend Lana sent us a set of photos from a place in Switzerland that takes its ice furry seriously. Take a look!
All of these icy scenes take place in Versoix, Switzerland (a town close to Geneva City). Léman Lake is the “water” in the background.
Here's our Thursday Thirteen of a place that's COLDER than here (or just about anywhere else except Bismarck, N.D.) ... We're SO GLAD that we live in a place where the coldest it tends to get is 'bout 33 degrees ... an' that's at NIGHT.
BTW: This last photo is what the black masheen would look like if Mom took it over to this place in Switzerland an' left it outside all by itself. I'm sure that the black masheen is grateful that the only exposure to "snow" that it ever got was about ten years ago when Mom was driving back from visitin' our Great-Great Aunt Vivian who used to be a "snowbird" (Our auntie was a birdie?!?) in Yuma, AZ. Mom got to drive through a snow storm where the snow was fallin' horizontally instead of vertically. The black masheen nearly got buried a dozen times by jerks drivin' big Urban Assault Vehicles at way above the speed limit. Yeesh!

Okay, I will try to stop complaining about the fact that is snowing again, two times in two days. But come on, enough already. I am glad you did not post a beautiful blue sky picture. Then I would have had to hunt you down and put the bitey on you. (lightly)

What great photos of the snow and ice - they look eerie!
But, no, no snow here, either.
We had a beautiful day here today also!
OH it looks very cold there!
That looks REALLY cold! We don't get snow here though. Pity.
No ice here. Maybe some frost but we haven't even had that in weeks. Happy TT.
Everything seems to be covered in snow over there in Switzerland!

We know all about "snowbirds" down here in south Florida! We finally got some cold weather where I live today: it got down to 40 degrees last night. That's cold, for us!
I've seen these photos before. Tony's Mombean sent them to us and said they were from Lake Geneva, Wisconsin, and my Bean had a very good laugh about that one.

It was beautiful out in Nor. CA today as well. My grandpaws flew in last week from Whiskerconsin and have loved the sun so much they have been walking around in shorts and tank tops...mol!!!
Since we live so close to you, we too are getting the warm weather. It has been very nice. Mom has seen those pictures before, and even tho she wouldn't want to live there, she thinks they are beautiful. We think she is stupid.

Oh boy does that look cold and icky! :(
does -5 at 6am count as being cold? that's what it was here this morning
Before long you'll need to look at those pix to cool down. Summer will be here soon enough - though not soon enough for those snowed under.
Hugs, JFF
Wow, those pictures are incredible!!! I can't even imagine having that much ice.
