Big Bone Lick Snowstorm

Here are some original photographs after a massive snowstorm at Big Bone Lick State Park in March 2008.

Park covered in snow

The park was covered with about a foot of snow, which is a lot for Northern Kentucky.

 

Snow shelter

I love how snow transforms everything you see into a marshmallow world of white.

 

Teepees in the snow

The Native American teepees look more like hot-fudge sundaes.

 

No picnics today

Big Bone Creek

Big Bone Creek freezes occasionally but is still flowing well today.

 

Dr. John E. Stevenson House at Big Bone Gardens

Across the street from the park at Big Bone Gardens is the house that Dr. John E. Stevenson built around 1870.  He was the physician at the Big Bone Springs when it was a popular resort.

Our dog Shadow looks like a wolf hunting prey…

All dogs are angels.

 

No leash law on snow days!

Time to walk home after a beautiful winter hike.
