It is the first snowfall. It arrived late this year and followed a sunny summery autumn. So imagine the shockingly cold surprise and sparkling white beauty of this season's first snow. As I breathed in the prickly fine air the world about me seemed new. The sun was catching the fine crystals setting off brilliant sparks on each tree and bush. As I looked down our mountain valley to distant peaks all the shades of winter's blue were around me. My favorite color. I hope you enjoy it too.

ReplyDeleteOh my goodness glory, I feel like I've just fallen off a cliff into a beautiful Christmas card. Excuse me while I brush the snow off my leggins! Heeehehehe!
ReplyDeleteYa know I can actually stare at the enlarged picture and feel the depth. I do need to get off the Ponderosa more often don't I??? :o)
Ya'll have a most magnificently blessed day sweetie!!!

ReplyDeletesimply mesmerizing. we haven't had any real snow to speak of yet. but seeing yours makes me long to see one good snow, :)
ReplyDeletehope all is well. have a great night.
When I see photos like these, it makes me sad that I don't live somewhere more exciting than the flat prairies of Saskatchewan. I need a forest, or a beach. or an ocean... But of course, I can relate to the snow ~ I could give that up in a second! :)
ReplyDeleteWonderful photos Julie!
