Hibernation part 2

I forgot to finish my weekend of hibernation so I'm going to give you part 2 today.
Sunday morning the snow finally stopped falling. When daylight hit it was a bright and beautiful day.

It was the bluest sky I have seen in a long time. The sun was shining and the snow in my back yard was sparkling like a diamond.



So why exactly is it that something so pretty has to be so cold?

  1. The colors in your photos are wonderful! The deep bright blue and white sparkling white snow. It must have washed everything clean and new!

  2. I've always wished snow was just a bit warmer too. I guess nobody would ever want to go inside if that was true though.

  3. What beautiful images! I hate the cold weather too...and the snow. It is nice to look at...but that doesn't mean I actually like to be OUT in it!!

  5. See, what you need to do is go for the virtual snow (like me). The white stuff on my monitor is not cold at all, but it sure is purrrrrdy ;o)

  6. Alas, there is nothing so beautiful as freshly-fallen snow, and nothing so ugly as a pile of it, mixed with grit and grime.

  15. I love fresh snow...I don't even mind that it's cold...but I hate it when it starts to melt and goes all slushy and dirty!!

  16. That's usually what it looks like up here in Canada where I'm t, but everything is melted! I love the cold blue sky and white everything else!

    Thanks for sharing.

  18. Well, I don't think it sparkles that much unless it is cold. It's the price we pay for beauty.

    It's not that cold here, but folks are starting to complain. Really??! I mean, it's been 55 degrees until now?? If it is negative 3, I still say we have been lucky!

  19. It does seem that the prettiest days are the ones with snow and ice on the ground.

  20. I was just wondering why something so beautiful had to cause so much headache for folks.

    As to your comment on my blog today. I can imagine it would be hard to stick to any kind of eating plan since you work around food!

  21. We have snow here too and I sure don't like the cold part! Your photos are lovely!

    ReplyDelete
  22. LOL, now don't make me explain science to you! Just enjoy the beauty!!!

  23. We have the cold but no snow...share a little will you?! :D

  24. Yes, Ann...It is gorgeous but I agree. When it is so darn cold, it's hard to enjoy it. Love seeing that blue sky with the snow on the ground.

  32. Beautiful pictures! We have been spared thus far on Long Island. A little dusting and icy spots tonight, but warmer tomorrow!

  33. I like you picture of the sparkle in the snow. I have tried to get that and could not get it. We don't have much on the ground right now but any minute the snow is going to be flying. They say 3 inches tonight.
