Another Happy Accident

This garden ornament was a birthday gift from my beautiful daughter.

The darkening effect happened while I was adjusting levels in Photoshop and my fingers slipped. I like it a lot. It looks magical.

Scott spotted these buildings on our run this morning. Don't they look like they belong in the wild, wild west?

The rain is back today, but at least it was warm long enough for the daffodils to bloom.

We woke up this morning to 32 degree temps and 3 inches of snow, but by afternoon, blue sky was peeking through and when I left work at 5pm the sun was out in all it's glory.

For that, I am grateful.

Aren't they absolutely breathtaking? They were a gift from my boss. The colors are just incredible, and there are so many different ones. I may NEVER get sick of taking photos of them. You have been warned.

Frozen Drops

Today was going to be a rant about how unfair it is to have weather like this (cold and snowing) on my birthday. But when I went outside this morning, everything was covered in sparkles. What more could a girl want for her birthday?? It was a perfect day, from the moment I opened my eyes this morning. A big thank you to everyone who made that possible.

This is graupel. It's soft, small hail. It fell off and on throughout the day. I took this photo at lunch. Snow fell too during the day. In fact, it's snowing outside right now.

If we don't hit 60 by Friday (which they have predicted we won't), we will break a record for the latest date to see 60 degrees.

I am so sick of it.

The newest members of our family - our foster cats. Quila in the front and Loki in back. Poor things are scared to death right now.

It'll be ok.

I can't believe I posted this picture with that dirty bowl. Proof positive that it's late & I'm tired.

Oh, what a difference 1,000 miles makes! If we could only get a little sun here, this spot would come alive.

And I'm all caught up from our little road trip to find the sun.

Day One of our road trip to find the sun. We saw this guy at the rest stop. What a find!

I will catch up my posts as quick as I can. I'm exhausted today from driving so it will take a couple of days.
