I am laughing at myself. I got all excited about the snow. Little did I know a blizzard was on the way. The beautiful scene above is from two days after the storm. It may not have been a blizzard officially, but we were asked to stay off the roads for about 24 hours. We had a good solid day of heavy, blowing snow. It was AWESOME!
My window was covered in a layer of ice.
I’m sure this is the most snow we have had in the 5 years we have lived here. Scottsdale and Phoenix even had a dusting! Wowzers! By the second day, roads were dry and clear in our area.
We had more snow today, briefly. Then the sun came out and the cleared a bit. There was a roll of clouds hovering over Mingus. Then it spread out and moved forward, closer to us. I looked again, and it had collapsed, and was in the original hovering position.
I increased the vibrancy on this photo, but the clouds really were blindingly orange. It has been a BeAuTiFuL week in Arizona! Amen!

I love getting your posts. This one exudes joy. We seem to get the same storms, even though you are several thousand miles south. I miss my trips to Arizona, which I did many years in February. I will definitely visit when this mess is over.
Small world Sea! Haha. 🙂 When this mess is over, I have a few road trips in mind too. LOL. 🙂 What areas do you visit in Az?
Beautiful photos!
Hi Lana, how are you? So nice to hear from you, happy 2021!
Sheila! S – N – O – W ! Thank you for sharing the magnificence and stunning beauty of your neck of the woods.
Haha, thanks for enjoying it Dotty! 🙂
Oh, what beautiful photos. Thanks for sharing! We’re in for a rainy weekend! Brachot!
Sounds delightful Carol! Enjoy 🙂 xoxox
How beautiful it is, Sheila! That first shot of Mingus is breathtaking! That would make a good reference for a painting. Stay safe and cozy!xoxo
We have had many of those pinkish, baby blue skies, each time I think that as well, Laurelle! A gradient wash. Stay safe,, hugs! xoxox
Super photos Sheila and,yes, the snow is beautiful especially when it is fresh. How strange that you are getting so much this year in Arizona.
If we only get a big storm every five years, that’s not bad. LOL. I know that folks who have heavy snow every year, all winter long are probably not as excited as we are. LOL. We need the water, that is for sure, Val. 🙂
