Whirlwinds of ice crystals racing each other along the snow-covered road…
Long and snowy road
Shoveling the driveway clear and salting the footpath. Crisp whiteness, icicle cold air to breathe …
Wintertree – up to her knees in the white stuff
A halcyon time, seven days long …
Widderlake – frozen over
… and now?
… it’s raining … again.

40 days until spring. Not that Iām counting . . .

Only on the road where the traffic had compacted the snow … but I have these fantastic things called ‘yak-trax’ that are tiny spikes on clip-on soles for my boots. It wakes walking on that sort of surface with dodgy knees much more comfortable.

We got a big dump over the weekend. Since it’s been too cold to snow, which I’m not happy about but it’s preferable to the white stuff, which you make sound so nice but is just god awful.
