Baby, It's Cold Outside

The UK's thick with snow,

crisp and glittering white.

My nose is all aglow,

as bright as any red stop light.

This song from Dean says it all:)

Footsteps in the snow,

I wonder where they go!

Pattymaryclare said at 6:01 p.m. on Feb 6, 2009:
My first thought was YIKES! MAYBE MIKE'S HITTING THE 'SAUCE' A LITTLE TOO HARD lol or he's vying for Rudolph's job...VERY CLEVER AND CUTE AND THE rest of this set is BREATHTAKING. My dad always puts out suet for the birds and so did I in Calgary *no trees in my yard here*. THANKS FOR A GREAT LAFF AND a great panorama on that 2nd shot Mike . Now to listen to Deano luv Patty xo
Lifequest22 said at 6:01 p.m. on Feb 6, 2009:
Looks like you're catching cabin fever too, Mike. Beautiful wide open spaces glistening in that 2nd image. Looks too cold to walk anywhere.
YorkJodi said at 6:02 p.m. on Feb 6, 2009:
It's beautiful... and you look so cute in a red nose... haha
I'm glad the snow is there and not here...
Pattymaryclare said at 6:04 p.m. on Feb 6, 2009:

Very cute with your nose sticking out of the snow ! ! ! ! Very inventive :-))
Eduardo.affonso said at 6:45 p.m. on Feb 6, 2009:
#2 would never be that beautiful if there wasn't the snow, MIKE. And you wouldn't probably so inspired...
Waywardson said at 7:14 p.m. on Feb 6, 2009:
Great photos Mike! I was gonna make mention of hitting the bottle too much, but Pattymaryclare beat me to it!
Wildthing said at 7:17 p.m. on Feb 6, 2009:
Hey, Brian, do you & Patty suppose that it's the sauce making my nose red? HIC! :)

I am reading this as an early build up to RED NOSE DAY (Comic Relief) in the UK http://www.rednoseday.com/
I'm guessing that the high shot, looking out over the fields is from the top floor of your residence. Probably from some stately manor in southern England. You never tolds us you had royal blood in them there veins of yours Mike, but judging by the colour of your nose it has been watered down somewhat. #2 is a much nicer view this time than those thretening skies of the earlier posting. As for that great spotted woodpecker, Isn't he supposed to be employed elsewhere making an impression?
Mike.
Ira said at 7:43 p.m. on Feb 6, 2009:
Perfect winter! Snow, cold. Remarkable shots. Such winters - attribute of the next warm wonderful summer.
Cowgirl said at 7:52 p.m. on Feb 6, 2009:

I can offer some driving classes...LOL. I love to drive on the snow and stuff...:)
Pattymaryclare said at 8:16 p.m. on Feb 6, 2009:
Well Sir Michael of the Red Nose Day........TGIF and if the booze is good enuff for Deano (and it ALWAYS WAS lol) and our Andre (vodka I do believe?!?) I think you SHOULD take him up on the driving lessons: go 4-wheelin' or perhaps even get a snowmobile and HAVE A BLAST!!! literally and figuratively 'whoosh, vroooom, HIC, bang, crash, whoops'! nyuk nyuk pmc out
ConnieL said at 8:21 p.m. on Feb 6, 2009:

CANDYCANE said at 11:43 p.m. on Feb 6, 2009:
VERY CUTE MIKE. I LIKE THE SECOND PICTURE. I USE TO PUT OUT BIRD FEEDERS FOR THE BIRDS, BECAUSE I LOVE TO WATCH THEM, BUT ALL I DO IS BRING THEM IN SO GEORGE CAN CATCH THEM. SO I QUIT DOING THAT. BUT I LOVE WATCHING THE BIRDS. GREAT TABLOO. LAY OFF THE SAUCE NOW, MAYBE THATS WHAT MY CATS BEEN INTO THAT MAKES HIM ACT SO CRAZY. LOL, RHONDA
Whiptailizard said at 1:35 a.m. on Feb 7, 2009:

Sd14 said at 4:29 a.m. on Feb 7, 2009:

all lovely shots the beauty of the snow it makes avery thing look prety / black & whitesh,

great tabblo!!!!!!

joe???
Wildthing said at 4:29 a.m. on Feb 7, 2009:
Must be the Cat Mint Julep cocktails that makes George crazy, Rhonda. Mix them with more cat mint and less Scotch. Or better still, trade the mint for marijuana leaves. That'll chill him out, and he'll just purr 'peace and love' to the birds:)
Wildthing said at 4:31 a.m. on Feb 7, 2009:
Mike: Not a stately home down south. A small cottage up in the Yorkshire Wolds:)l
Annedm1 said at 5:12 a.m. on Feb 7, 2009:
This is a wonderful tabblo, I love the first picture LOL, I hate to say this but we haven't had much snow at all in Chester, about a half inch and thats gone, take care,
Welshchick said at 6:44 a.m. on Feb 7, 2009:
Wow! Up to your neck in snow Wildthing!!! ...Better treat that frostbitten nose with great care hehheh! ;^D
Leftofcenter said at 7:50 a.m. on Feb 7, 2009:
where's the brandy, Mulder??? beautiful shots though (and you know snow's not my favorite thing at this point) those footsteps... they're baaaack...
Wildthing said at 8:05 a.m. on Feb 7, 2009:
The brandy is on the way, Scully. Mitch is arranging for a few cases of liquid gold to be air-lifted out to my neck of frozen woods, so I'm watching the skies, 'cause the booze is out there.
AdSR said at 8:09 a.m. on Feb 7, 2009:
I'm sitting sick at home, but I just looked through my window. Not a single patch of snow, and it's 15°C on the thermometer!
Keeli said at 10:05 a.m. on Feb 7, 2009:
LOL ~ that first image is priceless! Wonderful wintery tabblo Mike!
Tanglewire said at 11:09 a.m. on Feb 7, 2009:
Great set Mike... good imagination
Bravemoonbearer said at 11:28 a.m. on Feb 7, 2009:
Your first photo gave me a real chuckle.Guess you can head up Santa's team.
Wildthing said at 11:36 a.m. on Feb 7, 2009:
I'd rather be Santa & sit in the sleigh, Sandy. My days of pulling them are behind me:)
Bravemoonbearer said at 12:54 p.m. on Feb 7, 2009:
Lets all drink to that,Mike.
DanMan said at 2:43 p.m. on Feb 7, 2009:
Wonderful, beautiful, clear pictures!
Jantass said at 5:27 p.m. on Feb 7, 2009:
Beautiful pictures and tabblo !!
YonderCreature said at 5:35 p.m. on Feb 7, 2009:
I love the light rays of the second photo! A great way to celebrate the winter fun!
Loes said at 7:07 p.m. on Feb 7, 2009:
Great shots Mike!! I've just heard there's more snow coming in England! Maybe your glowing nose can melt it away! :-)) Take care and stay warm!!
Wildthing said at 8:42 a.m. on Feb 8, 2009:
Thanks, Louise. I've gone into hibernation till it thaws, like an old, tired bear:)
PhotoPop said at 11:54 a.m. on Feb 8, 2009:
Mike, you can't convince me there is THAT much snow in merry old England, although it may feel like it. Cabin fever, three days locked in the house does not qualify, try three stinking weeks like we have. The snow is always whiter in the other fellows yard. Nice shots.
Chaitiamma said at 11:56 a.m. on Feb 8, 2009:
Hahahahaha.............Great Shots MIke !!!
Shenresi said at 1:19 p.m. on Feb 8, 2009:
very nice tabblo, Mike!!! I like the last two shots very much!!!
HtD said at 1:29 p.m. on Feb 8, 2009:
Well take the ferry too Holland. I see its a hard time in the Uk on the TV. Every day a lot of snow.
Wonderful animals fotos
SnowWhite said at 1:47 p.m. on Feb 8, 2009:
I want to press your nose -- see if your hat pops off. Love Dean. xxx
Pattymaryclare said at 1:49 p.m. on Feb 8, 2009:
Couldnt help but laff at Photopop's very funny comment! TRY 3 TO 6 MONTHS of the VERY white stuff and 'MILE HIGH SNOWBANKS' Mike and PP and then you'll have, as my father says often, REAL CABIN FEVER!!! We hardy 'crazy Canuckians' are so named for a REASON LOL.... Loved your play on the 'grass is always greener' too! LOL nyuk nyuk ~ pmc
Krisu said at 1:52 p.m. on Feb 8, 2009:
Put your clothes on and survive! :D
Wildthing said at 1:58 p.m. on Feb 8, 2009:
SNOWWHITE: I'm sure something would pop. PATTY: Maybe you should relocate. Unless you're a polar bear, or a masochist, or both:)
Pattymaryclare said at 2:05 p.m. on Feb 8, 2009:
No no Mike....we don't 'relocate' we just are aptly named 'snowbirds' when we jet south for part of the winter. NOT TO THE U.K. that's for sure haha.

'I'm not a POLAR BEAR .grrrhh!!! I'm A HUMAN BEING!! ' you may call me Nanookette of the North LOL

As for masochism I'd say more a case of we're all geographically born and we adapt Would your comment make you what? a sadist!? thanks for a lotta' chuckles this weekend man! luv Nanookette aka Patty xo
Pattymaryclare said at 2:08 p.m. on Feb 8, 2009:
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Nanook_of_the_North

READ ALL ABOUT IT! pmc out
Wildthing said at 2:18 p.m. on Feb 8, 2009:
Life & love in the arctic. I think you should make a sequel to 'Nanook of the North'. Could call it 'Nanookette does the Arctic'. Do you live in a spacious igloo with all mod cons? :)
Pattymaryclare said at 2:39 p.m. on Feb 8, 2009:
NNette does the Arctic?!? IT'S BEEN DONE ALREADY...by Nanook! Plagarism. Besides she's not that kinda gal! Lol ...Yes indeedy, I have the dog sled team, the mukluks AND snowshoes too! (you may wish to borrow them?) And of course the penultimate........snowmobile with which to escape now hungry aforesaid polar bears, vroom from ice floe to floe and just generally watch the place melt down and await further destruction with greedy oil seekers!?! MY IGLOO IS SO BIG ITS CALLED THE ''WHITE HOUSE TOO'' ha! bet you're REALLY jealous now! tee hee
Wildthing said at 3:02 p.m. on Feb 8, 2009:
Sounds like a real adventure living up there at the top of the world. Be okay for a couple of weeks, but I prefer warmth. Big softie that I am:)
Tunderke said at 8:51 p.m. on Feb 8, 2009:
Rudolph the Red-Nosed Reindeer ....The most famous reindeer of all--who incidentally was born in Chicago, not the North Pole--is celebrating the 50th anniversary of his theme song this Christmas.
