Merry Christmas

I'm running behind times as usual but let me wish all of you a Merry Christmas and Happy Holidays.  I hope you all are still safe and warm. 

We had a white Christmas here on the hill.  It's not unusual for us to get a bit of snow at some point during the winter but this is the first on Christmas since we've lived up here.  About 3 1/2 inches total.


Our neighbors walked up the hill past our house to see the view over town with the snow and took this picture near the end of our driveway.  


And this was the view from the porch.  Needless to say, with temps no higher than 20 degrees all day and a wind chill in single digits, I went no further  toward the outside.

The birds were really active today.  Lots and lots of them vying for space on the feeders.  They were all flummoxed by the snow blocking their places to light on the railings.  The snow will start melting tomorrow when the temps head up to the 40's and will likely finish off on Sunday.   It's really pretty to see it like this but I'm done with it now.  It can go away.  

I think all of us are looking forward to 2021 and the hope that it will be better than this year has been.  Please stay safe and warm.  We will get through it one of these days. 

Y'all take care

  2. Merry Christmas to you! There are a lot of problems we list about snow, but no matter what- it IS pretty. Lovely photos. And I'm with you. Stay indoors until a warm up. We used to love cross-country skiing when we lived in the north. Now we are in Florida, and I really have a hard time with cold! And it gets surprisingly cold in Florida. Here's to a happy and healthy 2021.

  3. Merry Christmas, Sue! It is lovely by you!! We didn't have a white Christmas, sadly. I don't mind the snow this year because we aren't going anywhere these days anyway.

    Happy New Year to you!

  4. Oh that snow sure is a pretty site! Love the log cabin in the last post. Smart on cancelling the gathering I think. Florida people are unfortunately not taking it seriously and the next few months are not going to be pretty. Plenty of fabric in the house to tuck into though =) Wishing you a safe and happy end of 2020.
