With our trees still full of leaves the added weight of the snow brought down branches every where you looked with roads and driveways being blocked.
In the midst of all this snow it was amazing to see the contrast of the autumn and winter. It was quite an extraordinary mix of beauty.
Digging out Sunday morning I had to stop and take a picture of the leaves, the snow and the blue, blue sky. I couldn't get a picture to do justice to what I was seeing but this does give a general idea. It actually was breathtaking. Even still, I'm hoping that this isn't a sign of what's to come for this winter. A nice gentle winter ... yeah, that's what I like. Guess we'll see.
I used to live in Upstate Ny..I remember there was snow on one particular Halloween..I too hope that the winter is a mild one for everyone. Have a great week
ReplyDeleteIt is beautiful, but I hope it is not the sign of things to come for you this winter!!!!
ReplyDeleteThat's alot of snow glor - I'm glad we only got about an inch here. Very pretty pictures by the way. :)
ReplyDeleteI flat out refuse to accept anything but a mild winter! I think we all had such a hard one last year, it's only fair that this one will be mild. I love your post. The sky is always so pretty when there is snow everywhere. :)
ReplyDeleteBlessings to you and yours always :)
I thought about you when I heard about the snow. I saw another pic that a friend posted. She lives in NY state close to Elmira and was in NJ visiting a friend. The pic was of snow and trees with leaves. The trees in the background looked to be black and white but the tree up close had green and colored fall leaves. It was a very pretty picture.
ReplyDeleteI hope you have a mild winter too Glor.
Pretty pics Glor. Sorry to hear about your loss of power, hope you didn't lose too much in your fridge/freezer. Stay warm. :-)
ReplyDeleteI'm so glad you stopped to take the photos. I live those tiny little pinches of brilliant color peeking through the snow!
ReplyDeleteYour images are lovely but all that snow sure was a surprise to everyone. I hope things have cleared up a bit for you since and that power is back on for the others, too. I am in the middle of packing -- early morning flight. Will be away for the next week. Best wishes, Tammy
ReplyDeleteWow, that looks cold....but, beautiful. Hope everybody got their power back on.
