The snow was certainly unexpected, so I thought I’d share.

It was Quite a Day
i
Before the sunrise Illuminating Lightning Provided prelude
to
The stormy grumble Rumbling, rolling, round sounding Vibrating thunder
and
Morning ‘til evening Pelting, puddling, darting All the day long rain

However,
Driving with Ben in the gray and gloom of the day, on our way for coffee and donuts, the windshield wipers barely kept up with the rain. Out of nowhere Ben says,
How does God do it? The birds and butterflies, so colorful! And the ants, so tiny yet living things! And the rain! How does God do it? Amazing

Then there’s this
A small thing bravely
Smiling in spite of cold, rain

And then there’s the Dahlia.
Inconspicuous Growing in obscurity Not outdoor-ready

A Winter Walk with My Camera
Today it's almost imperceptible
Yet there's hope for tomorrow’s reprise
Of yesterday’s home
Complimentary companions
A package of potential
Just hanging together
Best buds
Creation’s finest
Jewelled and dressed for the dance
Of winter with spring
Clingin’
Flakin’
Surroundin’
Featherin’

Embroiderin’

My Morning Walk
Usually These days Dark, cold, snow Accompany me on my morning walk
Not always
Usually These days There is something, someone I find of interest, delight on my morning walk
However
Always These days The dance of sun and earth Continues as I do my morning walk
And
These days I’m reminded the Sun Still rises while I do my morning walk

“On the Seventh Day of Christmas… ” Swans
Today is New Years Day.
It’s also the Seventh Day of Christmas.
So let’s think about swans. See…
Let’s try that again…
That’s better. Not quite like the song, though…
Okay, full disclosure …
There were only six swans and they’re not swimming. And, these were taken on the day before Christmas not today.
Just needed an excuse to show some swan pics. Just for fun.

“Look What I Did Today”
Unexpected delight…
When grandkids live half a continent away, it’s a treat to get an unsolicited note.
My middle school age grandson’s simple message was, “Look what I did today.” It was followed by a few dozen photos taken on a day off from school after an overnight ice storm.
As a proud Grampa, I thought I’d share. Here are a few of his shots.
