Raise your hand if you are shoveling out from a three-day snowstorm. It's been a while since we have had such substantial winter weather in our region and we are left with a beautiful change of scenery. Within just a few hours of freezing rain turning to snow, our southern magnolia was already dusted. I find the white and glossy hunter green combination to be very striking.
The first few days of this weather event were dreary and gray, leaving these views out the windows. We have icicles hanging down at the top of the solarium windows and...
snow piling up at the bottom of one of the kitchen windows.After the gray days, the bright sun was such a welcome sight this morning!
Trees, completely encased in ice, sparkled in the sunshine. Unfortunately, the picture doesn't do justice to the sight.
After my husband gently removed this 30 inch bumpy icicle from the corner of the solarium, he poked it in a snow drift. Doesn't it look like a buried narwhal?!
Despite the inviting look, the temperatures remained cold.
Notice the neighbor's path lights shining through the snow at the end of the day. The three-day snowstorm is over now and soon it will all melt away, but until then we will enjoy our change of scenery.
