a tale of tails, tenacity, and tedium, as told by me, usually barefoot and bellowing

Not Complaining...

The sun coldly climbed over the mountain and the house this morning.  The ice reflected the morning light.  Not a breeze stirred so it seemed warm after minus degrees yesterday.
The pond was still frozen as my driver flew by this morning.  Yes, still had to be driven but the snow is beginning to melt and there are rumors of spring like temperatures in the week to come.
So today, I chose to see the beauty in the frozen landscape. 
 I listened to birds sing and discovered jewels in the ice.
As the snow begins to retreat,
I believe, maybe, spring will come after all.

I heard those rumors. It was still here today as well and even though it was only in the thirties, it felt so much warmer with the sun shining and no wind.

As always your pictures are beautiful. I bet you are tired of the cold. It is beautiful though.

Gorgeous photos, Gail. I hope you're keeping warm. I'm up early to chase the sun.

Take it from me, who moves around in springlike weather, that springtime is just around the corner, so have faith. It will be here before you know it. Listen to the birds chirp, they tell the truth.

I am just loving your photography. And you always have just the right words to accompany those photos, too.
