Heavy Blue Ridge Snows of January 22nd
A foot of snow fell last Friday here in Otter Creek Valley. That’s the heaviest snowfall since I moved to this valley almost seven years ago. The following images and videos capture the essence of the event. It was beautiful from the time I awoke Friday morning, to yesterday morning before the warmer weather moved in, five days of snow Heaven.
This 11 second video was made at dawn Friday when I first realized what had happened during the night.
This one minute video was made when I first ventured outside, and my canine friends arrived from their home nearby.

Twilight Saturday evening…
The Sun appeared on Sunday morning. Otter Pond was completely frozen over…
Some icicles were three feet long…

Those are some beautiful photos Vann. They look like they are from a book.
The pic of your home in purple and orange looks like a place everyone would want to live.
I love it.
Thanks for all the post.
