Looking for Spring

I took a lot of pictures this week.

I wanted to share some of what I think are my best with you.

This is what happens when you take your camera,

looking for spring.

As you can see, it is taking it's time this year

I have been reading "Game of Thrones". In it, the Stark family motto is "Winter is coming". Well I keep thinking "not around here thank you".

What is your favorite photo?

Guest Photographer - Snow in the woods

Most of you will know from the news, that the Southern States had a bit of a cold spell last week.

Unfortunately, I was stuck at work all week.

So my camera stayed in it's case while I tried to remember how to drive on ice.

Chill Perspective

My Sweet husband and his Canon G12 came to the rescue. 

He took all the photos in this weeks blog.

The first five were actually taken earlier in the month and show a more typical winter for us.

As you can see, cold, but not extreme.

Ice from above

He risked frostbite and took so many wonderful photos, I had a hard time narrowing it down.

So grab something warm to drink (I have hot English Tea),

and enjoy.

Melting already.

By Friday evening when I got home, the snow was gone.

We had a fire in the fireplace again this morning but it isn't really needed at this point. 

Our temp outside right now is 57 degrees F. 

That is more like it.

My friend Cat in Canada, one of my favorite bloggers, 

(Corner of Cat's Mind) will probably laugh at our little bit of snow. Spontaneous is glad she is an indoor cat.

I hope you enjoyed the pictures.

Thanks once again to My Sweet Husband.

Cheers
