Windy Winter Weather

With all of the storms I thought I’d be more timely and post “How to dispose of yard waste in Baltimore City.” I think I posted something similar but I can’t remember. Anyway, it is a timely topic what with all of the wind damage we’ve suffered lately. My yard is fine, with a few minor branches down from the Japanese maple (which needed pruning anyway). Around the neighborhood there were a fair number of trees down but I saw the most damage out at Lake Roland. As we walked down the paths trees and large branches littered the forest. It seemed to be mostly the smaller, weaker trees that blew over but there were a few big ones too.

Since I accidentally erased the pictures on my camera I’ve included this tree lovin’ photo from Shlomit Wolf of stock.xchng.

Snowy Mountain Road



This is the road that we drive down when we go swimming in the summer, in the Catoctin Mountain Park. Well, no swimming today but it was very quiet and peaceful out there.

Backyard Dove


After last night's snow I went out on the back porch to play with my camera. I caught this dove resting in our tree.
