I'll have to go back in the spring and see how Bilbo and friends are doing. Thanks for the kind comments, Randy!

HA! I have not seen this idea before! Well worth the trouble it took to nab Deborah! Did it snow in the Shire? :) v/f

I know, Angelina; right? I'm so glad I turned around and and went back for this one. It was actually a lot of trouble because it's right off a very busy highway and I had to park about half a mile away and hike along the slushy shoulder of the road to get a good vantage point, but it was worth it! Thanks for the comment!

I couldn't believe this when I saw it, Mary! I was driving home from taking some photos at my favorite waterfall and nearly drove my car off the road when I caught sight of this! I thought maybe my eyes were playing tricks on me. Had to turn around and find a place to park and wade through the snow to get the shot, but I'm really glad I did. Thanks for your lovely comment!
