Dear beautiful Spring weather, I miss you. Was it something I said? ~"Skipper" Kim Corbin

Day Ten 2011


"Antisthenes says that in a certain faraway land the cold is so intense that words freeze as soon as they are uttered, and after some time then thaw and become audible, so that words spoken in winter go unheard until the next summer." ~~ Plutarch, Moralia

Day Two Hundred Twenty One 2010

Ice Ice Kitty


Another scorcher today. Buddy Cat enjoyed the ice cubes I slipped into his water dish. I've never understood why something that is forced to wear a fur coat year round refuses to stay indoors where it's cooler. Cats. Go figure.

Day Fifty

Random Snapshots From T.G.I.F.


Grand daughter Shelby walking in sun rays to Granny's house after school today--the first day back to school in a week.

I took this picture with my cell phone camera while I was waiting for Shelby after school this afternoon. I thought the colors were pretty in the sun light.

Take me to your leader. My alien shadow. Weird.

The sunset was pretty reflecting off the last of the snow this afternoon.

The sunshine and the warmth were so welcome today!

Grand son Elijah let me take this one picture of him this morning when I said I wondered what his nose would look like close up. He was feeling much better today.

This has been hiding under all that snow--the beginnings of the Daffodils, Jonquils, Buttercups. Whatever you call them, it means Spring is closer than you think.

Would be nice if this was the last of the icy fingers of Winter.

I like the heart shape of Eddie's head. Pretty neat. He was following me around the yard this afternoon while I took some pictures.

This little snail shell was cozied up next to a Hyacinth that has also been hiding under the snow. I didn't realize so many Spring flowers were popping up around the yard. It's a nice little reminder that the cold eventually goes away and the world will be green again soon.
Hope everyone has a fabulous weekend!

Day Thirty One


Neil broke this "Winter sandwich" off the car this afternoon--a solid layer of ice in between two layers of snow. This stuff is making for treacherous road conditions in our hilly little town. The temperature got near forty degrees and the snow and ice started to melt some. We did venture out and about this afternoon before the next hard freeze sets in tonight. No school Monday!
