Snowy, Icy Scenes Around Our Place Today

 

 

The temperature was so close to freezing at daylight this morning, that I knew I had to get outside early if I wanted to get pictures of snow.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

  

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

   

 

 

 

 By the end of the day most of the snow had melted from the tree branches – leaving just a few icy spots that glittered in the sunset…

 

 

and my favorite stone turtle was partially freed from the snow and ice that covered him since last night.

 The setting sun made the ice look bronzed.
