Wishful Thinking


I want some. Actually, a lot. Like, a yard full. Green. With dandelions. (I am starting to drool here.) You will understand my obsession with grass right now if you will cast your eyes over these snapshots taken around the farm here. The snow goes up to/past my knees, just so you know.

See? No grass. None. Buried. Gone. Frozen. Dead. (*sniff*)

Another thing to note is that you're not just flitting through light, fluffy snow. This is the real stuff which weighs (loosely speaking) a ton.


Yes, it's pretty. And cold. Really cold.

Here you can see the snow goes up to the second story.

(Or was that a hill? I can't remember...it's been too long since I saw the ground...)

What is your winter like where you live?

Hi Erika!
No snow here in Ocala, FL! It is a bit nippy though. Got down to 22 a couple nights ago. We had a fire in our fireplace to keep us cozy---and to keep the furnace from running so much. Supposed to be in the 70's during the day all this week. I can live with that! Your snow is pretty though.

The weather where I live is warmer then where you live here the temperature does not normally get below the teens. In the summer however the high can be 100+° F for a few days in a row.
We got about 3-5 inches of snow last week(The snow was not very good for making snow balls the first day but the second day, as it was starting to melt, it was better). Most things shut down, as they do around here when it snows.
Today it rained and yesterday the high was 44° F and the low was 32° F.
