Saturday Snapshot: Snowy Retreat

Although the snow can be pretty and almost serene, I’m tired of seeing it. I know those of you in warm climates enjoy the snowy pictures so I’ll stay with the season.

I took this shot early in the morning after the snow had stopped falling at my favorite bird watching area.

    Hi!
    What a beautiful spot even with the snow. It’s only January and I’m tired of snow and cold. I’m ready for spring! Have a great day!

    It’s so pretty it could be a postcard! But, yeah, the snow . . . I hear ya.

    That is a gorgeous photo! I’d just like it to snow around here for a few days each year. We only get nice fluffy snow that sticks (and by that I mean sticks enough to make a snowman) about once every five years.

    I completely know what you mean about snow after a while. We don’t have any on the ground here, but today is cold and feels more like Chicago winter, high of 24! Yikes! I am becoming a big wimp!

    This takes my breath away. Sometimes I do miss the snow.

    Lovely photo – it looks like icing on the trees. We’ve had snow since the middle of November and I’m tired of it now – but it does make good photos.

    I think pictures of snow are extra-special…I have posted blog headers of snow because I like it so much. And then there’s the whole “it’s my name thing,” LOL.

    Here’s my post:
