Snowflake is blowin' in the wind

Category: FRED - the garden | Posted: Thu Apr 27, 2006 3:23 am

Do not pay any attention to the looks of the yard around the windmill. The picture was taken almost 5 years ago before I started gardening. I just wanted to show a better picture of the snowflake design I painted on the blades and rudder.

I was born and raised in Texas, one of a rare breed nowadays .... a native Texan. We have gotten snow in the past, I can remember a few days playing in snow when I was a kid. And we had several snow days 27 years ago, but with the climate change or something snow has become a rare event down here. But I love snow....my first most favorite day is a snowy one. Even when we have gotten snow it is all melted usually within 24 hours. I lived in Colorado for a couple of years, up in the mountains and absolute loved it.
Anyway, Randy says I am the biggest snow flake he has ever met. So snowflakes have sort of become my trademark symbol.

Is that because you are unique? :)
