Good morning to all!!!

For the first time this year 

everything is covered in WHITE!

It looks great and it feels uplifting

after all the gray and Blahhh's of November.

It’s called Mother Nature’s paint job!

And the paint chip color is SNOW!!!

Mother Nature and Snow are a superb match.

They were made to go together and

make our lives up North much more interesting!!

We need the light and the lightness of snow!!

A soft blanket of white over the roofs 

and a light dusting on the bare tree branches

and hedges and bushes

reminds the eye of dainty lace.

Here's a picture I took a few years back 

after a first cold night! And the frost had attached itself

 to the dried up weeds. Like I said, lace!

And two of my favourites from my friend, Peter  

who snapped these one morning on the South Island.

Pete lives in New-Zealand.
