Hanging on ....

While out for my morning wander, I noticed a lot of the snow that had recently accumulated on the trees, was beginning to fall to the ground, while others appeared to be hanging on for dear life …

It came …. (again)

Just a few days after the last snowfall, it happened again ...

See my previous blog ~ “It came ….” ~ https://southshoretidewatch.blogspot.com/2023/02/it-came.html

This time a little bit more was dropped upon us, but with that we were rewarded with some lovely local views and the inescapable clear up. Fortunately, Buddy Brett was out with his faithful tractor to help with that and had lots of fun doing it …

Today being March 3^rd, I am once again reminded of this day in 1980, when I was surrounded by bright spring blossoms, thousands of daffodils and freshly cut grass, see my blog from one year ago ~ “Memories of other times …” ~

It came ….

I mentioned that we were due a snowfall, well I can report that it came and on time too.

After some snow clearing and with the accompanying cold air stinging my cheeks I pulled my scarf up closer to my face and went for a local wonder. With what seemed like a white blanket covering the trees, the ground and houses, I started out down at the river before venturing into the forest at the back of the house. It was perfectly quiet and still, the only sound I could hear was my boots crunching in the snow. Such an incredibly peaceful wonder in the company of undisturbed snow and long shadows.
