Hello Spring

Caught these little guys trying to peek up. Spring is coming!

Winter Grass

In Need of Spring

I'm ready for spring, so here's something green.

Snow in the Park

Sick of snow yet?

Let it Snow

We got some snowfall today. So far we seem to have about 8 inches but when I took this photo it was still falling. Ahh winter, how I did miss you. Even if I do have to shovel myself out.

Handmade Bell

The wooden bell in this picture was handmade by our neighbor.
Hopefully with work coming up and a nice walk on the trail near our house some pictures besides those of things on the inside of my house will be forthcoming.

Lime and Dog

This is my mother-in-law's dog, Zipper Too. He likes to look out that window, not sure what he finds so interesting.

Nandina

I'm told these plants are actually weeds and if you let the berries fall you'll have Nandina all over your yard.

We have about four plants along our property line and I keep hoping for a small forest of nandina to spring up but so far that hasn't happened. I happen to think the bush is very pretty and the bright red berries in the middle of winter make pretty good holiday decorations.

So here we have not the berries, but the bright red leaves against the remains of our record 19 inch snowfall. We were supposed to get more snow this morning and I had dreams of photographing a wonderful winter snowscape. Clearly that didn't happen.

A little late for Christmas

Or really really early depending on how you look at it. This is the decoration sitting outside our local Food Co-op. The reds and greens caught my eye so I decided to try and get a good shot.

I'm hoping to get out on some hiking trails to practice wider views again but first I need to get over this cold and it needs to get above the teens. I love a good brisk walk as much as the next person but low teens is a little too brisk for me.
