Snow Day



Just as predicted, the snow came...
Huge wet snowflakes, that magically transformed the earth, now blanketed and white.
Yesterday I noticed how many birds had reappeared from their Winter nests, chirping and busying themselves about the landscape, the milder weather had stirred their souls.

Today, they are silenced once again.

nothing like a snow to bring "the sounds of silence"!

Beautiful photo! We were supposed to get that snow here in central KY, but it skipped us. :(

My mom lives in Nashville, and when we spoke on the phone today, she said it was snowing. Tennessee is especially gorgeous with a blanket of snow. Enjoy the beauty while it lasts, which surely won't be long.

Good Day! Jo,

So far we are having Spring-like conditions. Hope that keeps up! However, I do love all season's.

Love your sweet post.

Have a beautiful week!

Hi Jo---Love your snow picture.. We had about 2 inches up here and I got out and took a bunch of pictures....Loved it since it was the prettiest snow we have had this winter...

Yes---the birds and our spring flowers just 'thought' it was SPRING.... ha

Now I know who got the snow! It was predicted here but none came. Always makes a lovely backdrop for photographs, this one is lovely.

I am feeling a bit cheated. We haven't had any snow this winter and they are forecasting temperatures of 16C for Thursday.

We haven't had any snow to speak of this year which makes up for being snowed in for a week in 2011. Unfortunately the insects have all grown to Texas size during the mild weather - we're in for a bad summer.
