Icy Pic Spam!

Even though it didn't get warm enough to melt anything today, the skies were clear blue and sunny... which made for a beautiful winter wonderland. (As long as you didn't have to be driving in it.)

I actually snapped quite a few photos, but these are some of my favorites.

Here's the view from our porch late Wednesday night, not long after the snow had started up again -- you can see that I'd shoveled the walkway and stairs earlier:



One of the really tall trees across the street from our house, late Thursday morning:



The playhouse in the backyard, with snowladen bamboo bending in the foreground, taken late Thursday morning:


The tops of some of the trees in the park behind us, with the beautiful blue sky behind them:


And, finally, a shot of me all bundled up and wearing the cunning hat [livejournal.com profile] tomte and [livejournal.com profile] gidgiddoni gave me for Christmas. Sadly, no one at Safeway seemed to recognize it:

"You mess with me and I will kill you, when I get warm..." - oh wait, you look too amused to kill =)

Woman walks down the street in that hat, people know she's not afraid of anything. :)

Just looking at those pictures makes me feel cold!

I do miss the beauty of winter weather. And it's only beautiful when you don't have to drive in it!

Lovely pictures! I love snow.

Now that hat . . . well, I expect it'd keep you warm. And it would definitely scare off the wolves! *cackle*

You shovel? That's just so organised. Thankfully none of the qhite fluffy stuff here, yet.
