Yesterday I woke up to an icy mess.
We were actually quite lucky where I live because we didn't get a thick coating of ice. There were no power outages or tree damage.
It did certainly make travel dangerous, though, and I was glad to stay home. There were a couple of damp goats that weren't too thrilled with it.
Monday we had an ice storm pass through our area. It was a wintry mess to be sure. But I thought it would be a wonderful photo opportunity to capture winter in all of its glory.
Or so I thought....my camera would not charge so I am sure I need a new battery...no problem I will get our older digital camera it doesn't have a rechargeable battery. And it doesn't it, what it did have was 4 double AA's that need replaced. So no pictures. But Eden Hill's Blog came through and posted some beautiful pictures of an ice storm that passed her farm. And not only can you enjoy her winter pictures, but you can enjoy a picture of two of her beloved goats. They are just too cute. So stop her page and enjoy her talents with taking breathtaking photos. Blessings - Patty
Beautiful photos.
She did a great job!
Loved the icicles!
She did a great job in capturing that part of winter.
Glad you survived the ice storm, but sorry you have no photos to remind you. Still, as you say, there’s always another blog somewhere to plug the gap!
Thanks for stopping by and you are right, there are many blogs to share and to enjoy – yours included. I never realized how beautiful the French country side is.
The icicles on the bird feeder was my favorite!
Hope you thaw out soon!
We’re a balmy 50 degrees out here in Seattle
I always thought Seattle would be colder. That is also a place I hope to see one day – I love the rainy days and think I will feel right at home in Seattle.
Ah — the dreaded dead batteries that keep us from taking photographs. I always try to make sure my camera battery is charged and have considered getting a second one as an emergency back up. Thanks for introducing me to Eden Hill’s blog. I hope winter is treating you well!
Having batteries on hand is now a lesson learned! Winter is treating us all well – we are getting little tastes of spring here and there, hope you are too. I can’t wait to see the spring pictures on everyones blogs.
We are getting little tastes of spring! Look for pictures soon … maybe as early as next week.
Great pics!! Glad you didn’t have any terrible damage from the ice storm! Stay warm.
Thank you- we are thankful too. Blessings
So happy you had no damage…icicle photos were amazing…thanks for sharing! Hugs to you ~ stay warm! xo
We were lucky that it did not hit us as bad as it was predicted. Winter has so much beauty.
You are so right! I love the look of newfallen snow and I adore watching it fall.
We have had light snow today – just the way I like, pretty enough as it comes down but not enough to shovel!!
That’s my favorite kind too!
Thanks for sharing the Eden Hill post. Ice storms are so hauntingly beautiful (as long as I stay inside).
agreed!
