October Snow 2009



Nature is full of genius...so that not a snowflake escapes its fashioning hand. - Henry David Thoreau



We woke up to snow, this morning. Big fat fluffy flakes of snow. Perfect for building a snowman or making snowballs. If I had a better sense of adventure, I'd go outside and play...but I don't. A cup of hot tea while I 'compute' appeals to me more.

There's no wind, thank goodness. It's pretty, I have to admit, but I hope it doesn't last. I'm sure it won't because it's supposed to reach into the 50's and 60's this weekend.

These are photos I took just this morning. Look how red the berries are...

Jack is on a run to the Cities for Meadow Farm and won't be back until late afternoon. Fingers crossed that the roads aren't icy. Well, I have errands to run and I need to do them in case it really turns nasty. Stay tuned...

OMG what beautiful images! I love the first snowfall, although I don't want to have one quite yet. Those berries area so bright. Hope it didn't turn out to be too nasty on the roads.

Thanks, ladies, for the thumbs up on my snow pics. It's all gone, now, but it won't be long and it'll be ba-a-a-a-ck!

These photos are beautiful. If we had pretty snow like yours it would be more welcomed here. Our snow is always slushy within seconds and never stays longer than the morning.
