We got some more snow Thursday and Friday and then the Big Chill came barreling down on us. Windchills in the minus zero range. This morning’s temperature was below zero, but it didn’t feel all that bad when I went out with the dogs. I didn’t stay all that long and by our afternoon walk, it was a balmy 25 …
“The footprints you leave behind will influence others. There is no person who at some time, somewhere, somehow, does not lead another.” ~Unknown One of the things I enjoy about walking in snow is seeing track trails. I live on a farm and that means I can see fields untouched by human feet, vehicles or livestock. Cows are confined to one …
“Snow brings a special quality with it—the power to stop life as you know it dead in its tracks.” ~Nancy Hatch Woodward. I guess I took a snow day last night before the snow actually started here in Kentucky. Whatever, I let Wednesday and most of Thursday slip by without doing a post. I could certainly claim a snow day …
“A snow day literally and figuratively falls from the sky—unbidden—and seems like a thing of wonder.”</strong> ~Susan Orlean I didn’t get my post done last night and so I took you for a walk with me on the new fallen snow this morning. Not much snow. Maybe 2 inches, but however much it was, it coated all the tree limbs …
“Sunshine is delicious, rain is refreshing, wind braces us up, snow is exhilarating; there is really no such thing as bad weather, only different kinds of good weather.” (John Ruskin) Snow is in the air tonight. The temperature plunged and the rain started turning white. Frankie went outside a while ago and came back with white sprinkled all across his …
“How many lessons of faith and beauty we should lose, if there were no winter in our year!” ~Thomas Wentworth Higginson I like the seasons of the year. Each one brings its own gifts, and one of the gifts of winter is snow. So far this winter, our area is in a snow drought. Instead of snow we’ve had lots …
Do you like January? Usually after Christmas winter sets in around here in Kentucky with snow and frigid winds. Right now here in Kentucky we’re having a taste of the frigid winds but with only a few snowflakes floating around in the air. Hardly enough to notice. But I know some of you who live to the north or west …
Winter showed up around here last night in a hurry. The weather forecasters even had a new word for winter – Flash Freeze. That was what it did last night and then the rain turned to snow. Woke up this morning to a white world. My dog, Frankie, was happy. He likes the snow and doesn’t mind the wind chills …
Music comes from an icicle as it melts, to live again as spring water. ~Henry Williamson Spring officially arrives in five days. Usually here in Kentucky we are enjoying spring like weather a week or two before the calendar declares it so. But this year we had those one or two weeks in February. Very unseasonable warmth with May and June …
Do you like snow? Are you one of those people who wear sweatshirts that say “Let it snow?” Or are you somebody who wouldn’t care if you ever saw another snowflake and wish you were in Florida every time you are bombarbed with those flakes? I sort of like snow as long as it doesn’t overstay its welcome. One nice …
