It snowed all night and was very cold. It was still single digits during an early round of checking and feeding. When I headed back inside, dawn was breaking:
And by noon the world was quite dazzling:

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.

There was sunshine today. My car started. I made some great mayo. Watched some fun mindless videos about gracious homes, with hats and horses. Fumbled a new glove design. Could have been worse.
ReplyDeleteIt was still a dark day.
Take care, Quinn.
Yep. You too, Liz.
DeleteIt was pretty! Did not get out skiing - maybe tomorrow if the trails aren't too bad? But spent the day sewing... I feel accomplished!
ReplyDeleteIt was about 8" of powder all the way down here. Is that good for skiing? If so, I hope you get a chance. And in sewing terms, I would feel accomplished if I threaded my Featherweight!
DeleteMy boys in Denver have been in a snowy world since Friday night. I am not a fan of cold at all so don't know how long I would last. Sure does look magical though, at least for a while. Warm wishes, Tammy
ReplyDeleteIf it's not windy, I find the cold much easier to deal with. But it really is QUITE cold again today so I won't be dallying over chores.
DeleteMLK celebration today - a good thing to focus on. Send snow our way :-)

You're still not getting snow? We've had a few light storms, but this is the biggest accumulation so far - about 8 inches I estimate. SO much better than ice or rain!
DeleteI had a quiet, news-free day. Very busy all day, keeping my mind from dwelling on the darkness descending.
ReplyDeleteYour day looks beautiful. Cold and beautiful.
Same. And with the attention span of a gnat.
DeleteI agree that winter can be pretty - provided I'm on the inside looking out!
