“It is the life of the crystal, the architect of the flake, the fire of the frost, the soul of the sunbeam. This crisp winter air is full of it.” — John Burroughs I’ve known some Januarys where snow has been off somewhere to the north, where you could only find ice in the freezer, and winter coats were hardly …
Sometimes I wish that I was the weather, you’d bring me up in conversation forever. And when it rained, I’d be the talk of the day. John Mayer (Source-brainyquote.com) Oh, the weather. What would we talk about if not for the weather? This week the weather has dominated the talking. Forecasts started several days ago, maybe more than several, about …
“Snowmen fall from heaven… unassembled.” – Unknown Here in my part of the world we’ve had snow this week with a half inch of ice on top of those six inches and then about two or three inches on top of that! In recent years we’ve had mild winters where we might get a little snow, but it never lasted …
Snow! You either love it, endure it, or hate it. Or maybe like me, you like it sometimes, maybe even most of the time, but get tired of it if the snow overstays its welcome. I’m sort of the one good snow a year and that’s enough, but I know some people love snow so much they want the ground …
“The first fall of snow is not only an event, it is a magical event. You go to bed in one kind of a world and wake up in another quite different.” – J.B. Priestley I like living in an area where the landscape takes on new looks as the seasons change. That’s not to say that I’m not ready …

I’m sure they didn’t consider the wisdom of my words, but instead wanted to shut their …
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 …
