It’s minus 15 C and the sun is rising
Cold and honey warm.
Lots of new snow crunches underfoot.
Queen Ruby jumps up on the hay bale as usual.
But wait – who’s that dog wearing the harness?
That’s Simmie’s half-sister, Stella, who is staying with us for a bit
As her owner has broken her foot.
Red berries remind us of summer fruit
Underneath their winter coats of snow.
I come home with frozen hair…
But I prefer to share this photo of my daughter (from years back) with ice-coated hair.
Oh – the joys of winter!

Lady Fi – there are not many of us around that would call cold luscious, but I am in your camp on this one! It has become quite the fashion among young ladies to leave strands of hair outside a hat or helmet when skiing here, and inevitably they get coated in snow or ice. The things people will endure in the name of fashion! Enjoy your winter!

fina bilder. Jag gillar sådana dagar, fast jag hade velat ha dom i mitten på Januari. Då går solen ner vid en liten å så det blir fin dimma över vattnet. Men det blev inte så kallt de dagarna i år. Dina hudnar ser ut att gilla vädret 🙂
