A Taste of Winter

Ahhh winter! Though we are early into the season, there have been a few light snows so far.













When you step out into the frosty, white world, make sure to have a pair of warm, new boots...
things to do...



identify unknown animal tracks (rabbit, I think)...



make some of your own...



watch the buds on the trees going into hibernation for the winter...



photograph everything!
Can't forget sledding, snowman making, and snowball fights.
And here are a few small remnants of the previous season...














a weed, (yet very photogenic)...



more elaborate weeds...



a lone herb peeping through...
So much to see even when it's covered with snow!
*Hot Chocolate or Coffee is a necessity after return from your backyard hike!

One last thing... Happy New Year!
