This was less than an hour ago, out my front door...



Ditto, out the back, into the woods...



This was yesterday, trying to take a pic of that bit of snow in the cedar through a window and not realising that there was a Christmas lights reflection thing going on... presto, instant Christmas cheer in the wild wood. I liked the accident...



Rudolph the Snow Nosed Deer...



Squirrel in the snow



Bird in Blizzard

In other news I've discovered that I've comprehensively forgotten how to make a snowman. I was just out there trying to, in perfect snow, and somehow all I managed was a snow stalagmite.

Still. I had fun.

It's positively BALMY out there today - hovering at or just above freezing - according to the forecast it's back into the deep freeze tomorrow for a couple of days - but today... man... I just love watching it snow. There's... just... SOMETHING

And if nothing changes within the next couple of days we're having a white Christmas this year.

As it should be.

Pictures are gorgeous as always. Your photos are always good, but most especially your winter ones.

And the good news here is my MIL survived her one-day trip to Seattle, didn't freeze though I gather there were some paperwork fusses, and now everything's in order and they will be here tonight!

Thanks!

And yay for the conquering of snowy Seattle and the impending visit! We had Serious Snow today, and I saw one two truck driving slowly down our street with what looked like a pretty totalled car in tow. People are DRIVING out in this stuff but it isn't the people who KNOW what they're doing that are teh problem, it's people like me who don't. Which is why I'm staying home for the holidays, as it were...
