winter has arrived

we've had a long stretch of dry weather and very mild temperatures.  it's been pleasant but we always get a bit anxious when we go a long stretch without getting rain in the winter.  yesterday it clouded up and cooled off considerably.  we got 4-5 inches of snow overnight.  it's finally looking and feeling like winter.

looking wintry


don't think they even noticed


love those branches


"YAY, WINTER!...YAY, SNOW!...YAY, I AM SNOW!...YAAAAY!!!"

  2. Yes beautiful snow images. Benji pulling on the leash especially - cats and snow, not a good match.
    Although, I should email you one of Mango in the snow trotting along in his long dugout lane leading to a relatively sheltered litter box area under a compost spinner in the back yard.

    Thank you Melina for sharing your pictures and your poetry. I feel like these last couple months it is words like Carry Me that have, well, carried me more than once. I'm grateful!

    Hugs to both of you from your northern cousin, posting anonymously since Google won't let me in :- )
