Well, we really have Winter this year! Certainly is different than the milder winters we have been experiencing in the past few years! For this area, it's the Twelfth "snowiest" December ever and the "snowiest" since 1970. If only it could be just Snow.....so much easier to cope with! Ice Storm arrived Dec 22 and hung around for a few days. Now, 12 days later, we are still ice-covered! Very cold and windy today......outside it sounds like a giant Windchime with all the tinkling ice! Wish something so beautiful was not so destructive!!
Birds still need to eat!!
Ice about 3/4" thick in some places!
Love that blue sky!
Bird Bath out of order for now!
This is Sweet Annie still encased in ice twelve days after storm!Have not seen much of the sun, but I know it is still there somewhere!
Found this postcard from 1909 in an old postcard album..........Happy New Year to Everyone! May you find lots of Time to do whatever it is you like to do!!
It creates wonderful images, but I know the hazards are intense.
ReplyDeleteStay safe!
Thanks so much for sharing photos of the state that captured my heart. Last week I saw photos of the ice in Bradley and Brewer. Funny, but during my three years there, there was much more snow than ice. Be safe.
ReplyDeleteWe are having the same thing here in Michigan, it was 1° last time I checked tonight. Wishing you a wonderful new year and hopefully the weather will warm-up soon.
ReplyDeleteOh how we have been sweltering here in Australia.
ReplyDeleteI so love being in the snow in the festive season....it even smells so different to here. I suppose the "Grass is always greener on the other side" isn't it!

The ice is so beautiful, but terribly hazardous. Hope you can stay inside!
ReplyDeleteGratefully, we didn't lose any trees to the ice. But we're spending today trying to thaw out the pipes to the washing machine! Argh!
ReplyDeleteThe photos are beautiful but also can appreciate the damage that these ice storms can bring. Thankfully we were spared on this side of the Bay of Fundy.
ReplyDeleteHope you are well, Cyndi. Happy New Year to you as well.
Ice storms! Have only experienced one and that was more than enough for me. Treat yourself to inside projects
ReplyDeleteIt looks so beautiful - and so different from our weather Down Under! Stay warm!!
ReplyDeleteOh Cyndi, you are such a good photographer! Hopefully you will lose a little ice today before the freeze AGAIN tomorrow!
ReplyDeleteI hope the thaw is coming!! Happy New Year!
ReplyDeleteLove your pictures Cyndi.Happy New Year.
ReplyDeletePretty to look at, as long as you are inside looking out! We're freezing here in Iowa too. Stay warm and stay safe!
