A Winner !!

Such exciting news I had to interrupt Wistful Wednesday!
The snow is gone from the snowstick! 


April 9th in the morning the snow and ice and water was all gone from the snowstick.
Pauline is the winner, please contact me with your address.  I will get a woodcarving off to you soon.

The rest of you...more snow is forecast...if when it snows 3 or more inches we will restart the snowstick contest...I will just keep all the old guesses.
We still have plenty of snow but there is hope for Spring now.

What a wonderful surprise for you and for me. The snow at the snow stick is gone and I made the correct guess. I will send my address.

Congratulations to Pauline! That is some surprise about the snow. We are also expecting more snow today and tonight. Hoping it is only the 1 to 3 inches they are predicting.
i have so enjoyed the last couple of Spring like days.

Congratulations Pauline! I really hope you don't have to start the contest again. No more SNOW!

Nice! I'm sure you were feeling winter would never end. Congrats to Pauline.

Well are you in the area that is going to get a snow bomb cyclone thingy today? Your stick may have snow on it again! LOL!....okay I shouldn't laugh. We have to cancel and appointment today because of the winds and rain...

Hope any snow that comes your way disappears fast! Maybe you could plug in a long cord to a hair dryer to make sure nothing is around the snow stick?

Excellent news!

Dawn said...

Well congratulations to you and Pauline!

WooHoo! But then are you going to get that Wesley storm that is supposed to be another 'cyclone' blizzard? It looked like southern MN would get it but I haven't looked lately. I am missing all the great blizzards! I did get to watch some on You Tube but it's just not the same! Get your supplies in just in case!
Congratulations to Pauline!

Leah said...

Yeah! -- we still have a bit of snow here - although I can now get to the birdfeeder!

Bonnie said...

So happy for you that it's gone and hope the rest of the snow goes away soon. Congratulations to Pauline!

Oh, joy! The snow stick is bare. I so hope that 18” predicted for tomorrow misses you (and my kids, too). I am so envious — you get a massage with your PT. In my opinion PT stands for Physical Torture. Hurts so much. But i guess if it helps it’s worth it.

There is hope for spring to arrive!

Congratulations Pauline. It was a great guess and you won. I hope she doesn’t have to start up the rest of the contest when it snows again. The stick seems a lot bare from it being sitting in plain dirt.

Congrats to Pauline! :)

You are on my mind. I don't know what your local forecast is, but our Sounders soccer team had their match in Chicago cancelled for today due to the pending snow storm. They had to get a special charter to get out of Chicago to get back home. Hang on for a bumpy start to spring.

Congratulations Pauline, lucky you

I hope you are done with snow and the forecast proves wrong.
Congrats to Pauline.

Rats! One day off! congratulations Pauline.

Congratulations, Pauline! I hope you're not snowed in again, though. Enough already! :-)
