We Woke Up to a Winter Wonderland

Except for us adults, the wonder has worn off, the kids are still loving the white stuff though, as far as they are concerned there hasn't been enough of it yet this year.

Bed is calling, I've been up for an exhausting 2 hours. My huge book awaiting me...it would be the perfect day to just stay inside and hide under 10 blankets.

The orchid is unhappy at the prospect of having to look at me for another 8 hours, so I get outside instead.
I don't want to kill another orchid.

Sticky snow, Kiedis and Stryder are trying to remove it from the bottom of the sled so it will slide better. Mind you, we don't have much of a hill. If the snow is still around tomorrow the kids and I will head over to @amymya's house, they have a nice big sledding hill there.

Everyone's favourite Roo, Mr. Pendock. He will always let us pick him up, though I don't think he whole heartedly approves...

Why do I put up with these humans?

A lot of the chickens are hanging out in the big greenhouse, there is still enough poly which hasn't ripped off to shelter them in the front area. It may make it through the winter yet!

This one was built to look like Justin Trudeau I’m told!

An uncanny likeness to a lot of politicians I know! 😂

Lmao. hahahahaha.. this is so very funny and you both are correct some are just big ***** and at when they need to step up for us are just flaccid and small like Lyndsay says..great snow****

HAHAHAA they wish!! It needs to be much, much smaller, and extremely flaccid, then I'd see a resemblance.

Good call!!! 😂

A warm day will adjust it's posture sufficiently I would think, so it's just a matter of time.

Bwhahahaha!!!! 😂

The picture is brilliant art, lol
The ideal one is not too big and not too small.

Do you like this Photograph?

great photos & story
but I have to contradict:

We Woke Up to a Winter Wonderland except for us adults, the wonder has worn off

For me it's still winter wonderland. I love the beauty of snowy landscapes. All these suspenseful differences: the dark black branches vs. the white snow; recovering in death; silent fight for life; Well I'm completely addicted to all seasons and winter is one of them.
Two stories out of my life:

  • I remember a winter when it did snow heavily and I walked through a forest. And suddenly I recognized that I couldn't hear anything. I said something to make sure that I was still healthy. I was but I still couldn't hear anything. The reason was: The fresh snow absorbed any sounds. That was an astonishing experience.

  • Several years ago I walked on a path surrounded by hazelnut bushes. It had been heavily snowing for hours and thus I walked through a tunnel of snow and I somehow felt safe.

Wow, those both sound like impressive experiences! You are right, there is still much magic I could find, I only have to be aware and look for it. The silence of the snowfall is a thing of magic. The hazelnut bush tunnel sounds incredible! Bless you for sharing your memories with me!

Nice snowy pictures, actually I liked it, a welcome relief from so much rain. So glad to see my little Salty Dogs having so much fun. It looked similar yesterday in Lower Sackville. I posted about the run, the charity was a huge success. Here is a pic of First Lake.

So what is the big book you are reading? I have been reading a little book called Joyful Militancy (an anarchist studies book).
Eddie should have a show on Animal Planet called The Chicken Tamer. 😁

I'm reading the series "Malazan Book of the Fallen" again. Once was not enough! 11,000 page series, I didn't nearly get to know the characters good enough, there are so many of them too, Erikson is a mind blowing author...

Your anarchist studies book sounds intriguing...

I will pass the message onto Eddie, definitely something he'd be interested in ahhaha!!

dear @lyndsaybowes always... We enjoy walking with you... but when does this snow disappear? We're cold when we walk with you...lol
Anyway, I missed my friends... I hope they're good.

And, really LOL -1°C is not that cold Haha. Mind you, i am sure the humidity does make it quite crisp!! Today, i woke up to glorious sunshine 🎶 aaaaaand, -23°C. Hoping it warms up a little to get another #walkwithme in soon! 😄

Aww, hiiiiiii @yagoub!! The chickens give you little wing flaps to say hello! xoxoxo They are all doing great. We haven't had much snow this year, only a few times, so they are going to be okay, and the boys are in heaven!

I see your champion is very excited to play in the cold snow area. the most handsome are my fans and my hero.
I also see eddy with a chicken holding, does he also really like chicken?
I entrust the introduction greeting to eddy :)

Eddie is a master chicken tamer. He has tamed a lot of our chickens, so that anyone can pick them up. He's a very special boy.

Wow, he is so cool .. I like a loving man and close to pets.
I think eddy is very loving and loving animals

But, really! How cold is it?!?! LOL

LOL @yogajill...um...maybe -1 hahahaa!!


Excellent! Fairy-tale nature and fairy forest, when there is so much snow!
And your chickens also like to ride a sled? :)) I think they will be nevodny, if you do not take them with you :))

Your Mr. Pendock is also going to enjoy with the children with snow?:))
Your children can be happy - you have a lot of snow. Not all countries have such a gift of nature for children - snow :))

You are right, we should take the chickens for a sled ride! How cruel of us to leave them out of the fun hehehe!

I hear you! This is the time of year where I'm asking mother nature, "really? we still doing this winter thing?? UGH!!!"

I don't know about you, but it feels like Christmas was 6 months ago!
