Sweetfern, Comptonia peregrina, is neither sweet nor a fern. It looks like something the dinosaurs would have walked through, releasing the warmest, spiciest aromas of imagination.
Thanks, Tammy - I finished Wednesday evening chores over an hour ago, had supper, and I'm still feeling cold and tired. Hugs and warm wishes VERY welcome!
Both the snow and Betula look beautiful! I hope that you are snuggled in for the night, recovering from a cold day out there. I know that it can't be easy to care for the goats in such deep snow!
Ah ... so you got it good. Betula is giving you a priceless look. My goats & horse used to love playing in deep snow. Made chores more fun when the animals were so playful. I'm guessing you're not as impressed ;) Wendy
Oh lordy, Quinn. That deep snow isn't a trifle and cause so much extra work and pain. I hope you're able to take aspirin or something for the pain. Aspirin is my BFF.

How I hope that this is winter's last gasp and that spring will be not just something that shows up on the calendar page.
