If you remember, back on Monday Charlie outlined a new project here at Pasty Central, to share more winter shots on the daily Pasty Cam. The pictures have been trickling in and today you get a glimpse at a few of them that are now in the running for the free bag of Trenary Toast.
The first two shots are from Judy Byykkonen, of her Scottish Terrier Minerva (Minnie for short). Judy says:
"Minnie loves to sit out on the picnic table all summer so she can keep an eye on the back yard. She thinks it is her job to keep all little critters away. The funny thing is... she is STILL trying to sit out there in the snow and I know she gets cold, so I have to go out and pick her up off the table and bring her in."
She sounds like quite the character, Judy... thanks for sharing her and the "Protector of the back yard" story with us.
The last photo comes from Joanie Sinkler and is one she sent in a few weeks back when the snow started, that was only added to the What'sUP page. She requested to submit it for our "Toast to 2012", so it's re-posted here on the Cam Notes today. Nice shot of two unsuspecting deer in the midst of what looks like some big flakes of snow falling.
In case today's photos have inspired you to get out there and snap some photos of your own to send, here are the guidelines, so YOU can be in the running for that crunchy U.P. treat, too:
Between now and the end of the year, if you see a CURRENT winter scene you'd like to share on the Pasty Cam - whether in the U.P. or elsewhere - email it to
