Frost and fog....

Hi Everyone!  I just had to share with you the pictures I took this morning while I waited for the truck to warm up before I headed into work.  We had fog and lots of it.  And we had frost.

I did not touch up these photos at all.  This is exactly how they came out.  And it's exactly what it looked like.  I took these at 7:45 AM and normally it's very bright out at this time.

Doesn't the frost just make everything beautiful?

This is a picture of my home from out in front of the shop which is located north and a bit west from the house.

 

And this is from the shop facing south east.  That pole sits across the road and the two dark figures to the right of it is a windmill and a mailbox.  Talk about fog!  I hate driving in fog.  And the country roads were bad.  The slush had turned to ice so it was very slow going.  Thank goodness the four wheel drive was working today.  The fog didn't burn off until after 11 AM.  And the frost didn't melt until off until after 2 PM.  But it does make for some interesting pics.  Well, thanks for stopping by.

A beautiful sight...

Happy Sunday Everyone!  Well the storm has passed and left me with a beautiful winter wonderland.

 It's crisp out this morning, 26 degrees.  But we're supposed to reach a high of 40.  So that means the snow will start melting today.

 The wind has died down too.

 Do you wanna go sledding?  Or build a snowman?

 Or make snow angels with me?  I wish we had a snowmobile.  Wouldn't that be fun?

My little shrubs aren't too happy right now, but once the temp comes back up, so will they.  I think I'll head back in and finish a few projects this morning because this afternoon I need to run to town.  I'm gonna wait until the temp rises and then maybe the roads won't be so icy.  I hope you enjoy your Sunday.  Thanks for stopping by.

Walking in a Winter Wonderland....

Hi Everyone!  This is what I woke up to this morning.

 .....in the meadow we can build a snowman...(maybe later today).

This is the view from my back step.  The dogs were excited to see the snow.  And although it's really cold today, I do like the snow.  Everything looks so beautiful and if it has to be cold then I want to see snow.  We just got 2 inches and that's enough.  But the wind is really blowing and making large piles of it around the house and out buildings.

I'm just glad I didn't have to work today.  So I didn't have to brave the roads before the road crews were out and about.  I do have to go to town later.  I have to mail a sign I made for a client and I have to pick up the mail for the snowbirds.  And I have tons of things to get done today!  Thanks for stopping by!

Snow...

Hi Everyone!  Sorry I've been absent this week.  My foot is on the mend, but it's not 100% yet.  So it's been hard to be motivated to work out in the shop and stand on a concrete floor, so needless to say, I'm behind again.  And tonight is my work Christmas party, so I'll have to try to squeeze some shop time in this afternoon and tomorrow.  We had snow Thursday late afternoon and into the evening.  So this is what I awoke to yesterday morning.  I love snow.  I love to watch it snow and how wonderful it looks right after it snows, before it gets trampled and dirty looking.  So I had to snap this picture before the dogs (who love the snow almost as much as I do) hit the yard and messed up my pretty snow picture!   

 And then this morning we had fog that frosted everything.  I loved how it looked so while I was waiting for the dogs first thing this morning, I grabbed my camera and took some pictures.

And when I turned to go back in I saw the start of the lunar eclipse, so of course I had to take a picture.  Did you see the lunar eclipse this morning? 

I promise to get back to some more projects, hopefully I have something to show you tomorrow.  Well, thanks for stopping by.
