Around The House ~



the sun
the wind
and
the cold
play winter tag

Have a good afternoon.

So true, those words. The D.C. area is supposed to get up to a foot of snow and ice tonight. March has come in like a lamb but wants us to know it isn't serious about spring yet.

i like the icicles on the railing, so pretty .. and i have not seen them in over 50 years.

Ruth Hiebert said...

I like the icicles.They are pretty but also speak of milder temperatures.

Lisa Gordon said...

Looks much like here, Susan, and it's been very, very icy because of the melt/freeze, but the snow IS disappearing, little by little. :-)

I hope you had a wonderful weekend!

I hope those icicles means you've had a little melting!
Frigid cold here this weekend. I did not stick my nose out of doors for two days. :(

I have NEVER said that I am anxious for spring--winter is my favorite season--But I am saying it now--I am anxious for spring--we are iced in also--

The cold and cold...so much worse there than here. But I'm filled with coldness all day long. So sorry for what you are going through. And your birds. So much cold is spread around. Bless you...

I do hope it warms up for you soon. I was able to go to the bird feeders without a coat just now.
