Winter Has Not Left Yet

Dear beautiful Spring weather, I miss you. Was it something I said? ~”Skipper” Kim Corbin

While many of you are experiencing spring, and loving all the new growth and color that spring brings, I get to be satisfied with a snow storm today.

I am not impressed.

I really, really want to plant the rhododendrons that are sitting in buckets of now frozen water next to my porch. At least, I do have some green to cheer me up.

Underneath this fresh blanket of white, there are new bulbs and buds peeking out.

Really! I saw them yesterday!

A Winter Walk in the Garden

Posted on February 25, 2012 | 4 comments

I prefer winter and fall, when you feel the bone structure of the landscape – the loneliness of it, the dead feeling of winter. Something waits beneath it, the whole story doesn’t show. ~Andrew Wyeth

Many of us (most of us) are looking forward to spring, but it snowed all night and I woke up to a very foggy and beautiful wonderland. So I grabbed the camera and headed out to the yard.

Hovering your mouse over the photo will give you a brief description (very brief).

Enjoy.

I heard wings above me as I was out in the fog, and was privileged to have a bald eagle fly directly over me. I wish I could share the moment with you, but he (or she) came out of the fog, and flew into the fog, with nary a hello or good-bye.

I am blessed.

The Morning After the Snowstorm

Posted on November 18, 2011 | 12 comments

Winter came down to our home one night Quietly pirouetting in on silvery-toed slippers of snow, And we, we were children once again. ~Bill Morgan, Jr.

The first significant snowfall is always so beautiful. It is all the more so when the morning sunshine is glistening over the new whiteness of it all. Enjoy!
