FROSTY MORNING


The snow we had yesterday combined with the frigid temperatures this morning 
and made a frosty paradise on our little acre of land.




When the sun came up, the outside looked like diamonds sparkling.









 A droopy sunflower left over from the hot days of summer.


 Seed pods from one of our Rose of Sharon bushes.





 Dinner bell on the deck.


 





The yellow finches basked in the warming sun and filled their tummies.

  5. Angela, I slept in a little late this morning, around 8:30 before I got up, but the frosty sights were still around. Susanna, I had saw where they were going to have that workshop, but I forgot about it. It would be nice if they would start a chapter near here.

  8. Hi Janet,

    When I volunteered as a Bestsellers Reading Group at AOL, I held open book chats with authors...I remember chatting with Jodi Picoult who so wanted to be chosen by Oprah as her book selection...WOW, didn't she really make it big...and I don't believe Oprah ever featured her at least not when I was was there.
    Your photos are really nice:)

    It is a pleasure to find your writer's blog...since I wanted to come back, I became a follower.

    Looking forward to reading some of your older posts:)
