As the Snow Leaves


The snow is melting as temperatures warm into the 40's.  I admit, I'm sad to see it go. This has been the most beautiful January we have had in years. Today on our drive to town I snapped photos, trying to capture the magic before it is gone. These were all taken along our 4-mile long one-lane road, and of course, all were taken from a moving vehicle with my phone, so not the best quality.


















Goodbye, Snow. You were a rare treat, and I will miss you.

  1. I admit, it looks nice. But really, I am glad we had near to nothing... I can´t wait for Spring. With the cellar underneath it is always cold inside.Yes, I know others are off way worse.
    And yours really does look nice.

    1. Snow is different in the country, I think. It doesn't get as ugly when melting and doesn't cause as much difficulty as far as where to put it when clearing streets!

  2. Super photos. The best camera is the one that you have at any given time. You can visit here for more snow for about two more months. 😊😎

    1. That is our usual winter, at least in recent years. I don't mind grey days, though occasional sunshine is nice!

  4. Beautiful photos. Winter's not over yet. February is the biggest snow month for us. We shall see if we keep up with January's trend.

    1. According to the weather forecast we have milder weather ahead until the latter part of February. Then winter returns, apparently.

  5. Yikes. I am imagining the drive on your roads with that snow, melting or not. But it is beautiful and you have caught it very well. We have at least another month of this kind of view up here in the frozen north, but at least it is somewhat warmer and the wind is down. the daughter got a snowshoe walk in yesterday.

    1. One must pay close attention, and go slow! Our van is all wheel drive which is actually better than 4WD. The truck is 4WD, up here just does not make sense to have anything else.

  6. Cleanse and renew, that how I look at snow. It is beautiful and has served its purpose, now it is time for the next phase.

    1. Yes! Time to pull in a bit, relax, and enjoy until time to get on with it again.

  8. Oh how beautiful it is! So I think what on earth your tires and car's ability to drive on it must be! Four miles on such a smooth but one lane road! Wow. Thanks for looking out the window with your camera!

    1. All wheel drive is amazing. The van will go quite well until the snow is over 6". Then it's time for the truck to take over.

  9. Thanks for the ride-along!

  10. Our snow is not melting, but it was sunny yesterday. Still cold. We are supposed to get warmer this week, which will be wonderful, but just having a bright sunny day was a definite mood lifter. Well. That and a cute little puppy.
