beauty of a delay...

We do know that it is winter and having *snow* and cold weather comes with winter ☺ ! I just needed to share yet again a glimpse of winter at my house! Please be patient with me, I love *snow*, and what I saw this morning was just so pretty that I needed to hurry back to the house for my camera!

We had a school delay this morning, the country roads were just a bit dangerous for the buses, so giving the road crews a chance to prepare the roads for travel was a priority. Also it is very cold as many of us are experiencing, this means that the snow and slippery roads stay with us a few extra hours despite the efforts of the road crews!

(looking in back of my house, the *snow* and the sight of the sun ☼ coming thru the trees was so pretty, and reminds us it is winter)

(and this picture with the sun and shadows ON the snow in my front yard)


Given a choice I would have stayed home and just looked at the beauty surrounding me, but I followed the needs of reporting to the office and doing what I am paid to do ~ it is called a job!

I think that I would think it was a lot prettier if I was looking at your photos from a nice warm beach in Florida instead of my living room in Pennsylvania while watching the thermometer fall below zero! ;o)

Beautiful! The snow definitely makes the cold more enjoyable.

Why ask us to be patient when you are showing us such beauty! I love looking at snow pictures any time or place...love snow paintings.

BTW, did you get your new camera?
