Blustery Storm


The first storm of the year here in these parts. Cold, windy, snowy, icy....makes for beautiful ice-covered landscape.

So lovely! I have been too busy lately to enjoy the outdoors. I feel the need to touch the earth or hug a tree or capture raindrops! Thanks for this beautiful post...

Becky said...

aw, thank you "shoes". miss you!

pauline - can completely understand! sometimes i forget about winter's beauty because i'm indoors so much. on days like this is such a sweet reminder.

Honestly, pictures of icicles never get old. I love seeing them. Freezing rain is great for icicles. Stay warn you hear.

Just gorgeous. Sweltering away down here I can almost smell that chilly ice smell...

Becky said...

egan - i know. and i love the way the sun dances off of them. i posted a few pics before the sun came out this morning, then posted new ones. the setting was completely different with the sun and casting shadows.

jake - thanks, friend. the boys and I were looking at a world map today. I was thinking of you when L, my 9-year old, was asking about NZ and I told him it was summer there. hope your ACs working!

That is just beautiful! But it makes me feel cold...

Becky said...

seb - merci! i know. me too. i don't mind dry snow on a sunny, warmish day. but when it comes to wet, icy, snow...i'm staying inside!

Katie McKenna said...

Still chilly! I'd enjoy the freshness if I dinna have this cold bug. Still could be worse!

Have fun today!

Becky said...

katie - i hope you feel better real soon! hugs :)
