Waking early or stepping outside late at night after the snow has covered the word in a white, crystalline blanket is a sight and sound unlike anything else in the world.<br />This has been our second winter in a row without a measurable snowfall. I think it affects the minds and bodies of us all, we need that definitive mark of winter to keep our mind and body clocks running smoothly.<br />On a much more serious note, without snow, our serious drought continues, our beautiful trees continue to suffer and as I read recently, allows the germs and viral element in our environment to flourish, growing even stronger and more difficult to eradicate.<br />I pray we are blessed with a gorgeous beautiful snow for our eyes, spirits, health and well-being.<br />Thank you for a most beautiful share.

The temps have been in the mid twenties to low thirties.. and clear (very unusual for WA state) I just love it when we get a good snow fall. The foothills get lots of snow and the roads often close ~ it's too hilly and the ice is a problem. I'm ready for a few snow days! Great photos Elizabeth!<br /><br />Lesliehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11280782743483018226noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9010931580827952387.post-1808149067617742622013-01-16T20:58:23.046-05:002013-01-16T20:58:23.046-05:00Elizabeth, Our weather is all messed up as well....Elizabeth, Our weather is all messed up as well. We usually do not have a decent snow until late January early February, certainly not 10 inches on Christmas day. I am still waiting to wake up to snow on the ground, schools closed and a full pantry.

But now, we just have cold and a couple of days ago, the January thaw took a lot of the snow we had, AWAY! And there is NO snow in the immediate future.<br /><br />WE CAN DREAM, HOWEVER!

We have had a certain amount here in Budapest where it continues to lie - far more in the countryside - but we are keeping our fingers crossed that we have not seen the last. We think not!<br /><br />Your images are lovely - may your wishes be fulfilled.Jane and Lance Hattatthttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16831890261259302647noreply@blogger.com
