Beautiful photos …. my children are longing for snow (it’s been over two years since we saw any!) ❄️
Many thanks! More snow today. Wish your children could see it.
♥️ I’ve just been writing about the only snow we saw all last year (driving through the Cairngorms!) – the post should be up online tonight 🤞🏻 Your garden looks stunning – like a winter wonderland x
I especially love the first one. The plant’s contrast against the snow is lovely.
Many thanks!
Beautiful snow scenes, Laurie! We had a light dusting here yesterday, which melted quickly. It is 27 degrees and frosty this morning though!
Thanks, Lavinia.
Hi, Laurie – We just had a huge dump of snow here (at least by our faint-of-heart Vancouver Island standards). I prefer the snow in your photos, rather than the real cold stuff outside my door!
Oh, my! At least the plants will have plenty of moisture. 😉
That’s exactly why I follow you. I love your positive thinking!
Many thanks! I feel exactly the same way about your blog.
😀
It’s so lovely to see the snow has returned Laurie, it looks wonderful! 💜 xxx
And more snow today! Our home looks like a chocolate-box house. 😉
Yay! xxx
Lovely! You’ve got me wondering what made the footprints. Not the stone cat, that’s for sure – it’s easy to see he or she hasn’t moved.
No, not the stone cat. 😉 Probably a red squirrel.
Thanks for answering – I was wondering the same thing.
I was wondering the same thing about the prints.
Nice winter captures, Laurie. Crazy as it sounds, I’m enjoying this winter (so far, at least)!
Thanks, Eliza! Glad winter isn’t too hard on you this year.
You got moisture! Your plants say thank you. 🙂
And more moisture is coming. After seeing the pictures of Australia, I am not sorry.
Wonderful photographs.
Thanks, Susan!
Very nice! Do you think those are squirrel tracks? I think I’ve decided they are. I know squirrels have four toes on their front paws and five in the back, and that confused me. But, then I read that both squirrels and rabbits tend to place their larger hind feet in front of their smaller front feet as they travel – that would explain the four-toed prints being in back. What fun, to be able to see who’s cruising your neighborhood!
Yes, probably a red squirrel. We live in the woods, and our backyard is filled with life. Love it!
Awesome observation!
I love the way the tracks come out looking like reverse (protruding up) tracks in your photo.
Thanks, Beth!
I love your snow photos and particularly the tracks…
Thanks, Lisa!
Very pretty photos of snow Laurie, cools me down straight away!
Nice!
Snow makes for some beautiful photos. Just hard frosts here up to now – which suits me fine.
Snowing today. Perfect for Maine in January. We’re supposed to get seven inches or so. Just the right amount. 😉
Get out that gauge, Clif
LOL
Wonderful winter scenes and footprints in the snow always make me smile!🙂
Thanks! Tiny footprints are so cute.
I think that we’ve had plenty of snow and it can stop now. This year has, actually, been very mild and other areas of the country (we’re in Michigan) have had it lots worse, but I’m getting older now and have less tolerance for cold and shoveling and falling down and scrapping windshields.
Same here! I think Maine winters are similar to Michigan winters. And the older you get…
yep…the older you get…. sigh.
