The Perfect Snow Storm

Happy snow covered President’s Day!

It's the perfect snowstorm!  Lovely and fluffy - cotton batting.

And drips like royal icing off feathery tips of the evergreens.

And turns shrubs into snowballs.  But it doesn't stick to the roads or walks.

  1. Isn’t it just like a dusting of powdered sugar? I love snow like that – so very pretty.

    Our snow is gone .. mostly .. but I hear more’s a-coming!

    Cheers to you

  2. Nothing like a dusting of snow to change the perspective! Enjoy. And thanks for sharing.

  3. Very pretty and peaceful. We have almost no snow here and it’s very odd. We’re getting a big storm later but it will be all rain. The weirdest winter we’ve had in awhile!

  4. What a beautiful veiw you have. I’m assuming it’s your view. I couldn’t read the post but the pictures are amazing. Once again you have made me jealous. haha.

    1. Yes, it’s at my house. And I love that although everything was covered except the driveway, sidewalk and roads. It had been warm the day before and they held the heat. Yay!

  5. Beautiful photographs. You know, how much I love snow, although I never experience this color of nature. 🙂 Thank you Renee, passing on the glimpse of it to us, through your blog. 🙂

  6. Perfect title for the perfect photos. Your snow storm is so lovely just like a winter wonderland. Beautiful. 🙂

      1. Not often. Once every 5-7 years. It happens infrequently enough that we will say “Remember when it snowed…?” rather than “Well, with the last snow…” We all still remember the Christmas snow event of 2004. It was magical. On Christmas Eve on the drive to my mother’s house…it snowed! So let’s see…that was 7-8 years ago. Our winter has been too warm this year bringing blessed rain.

  7. Renee, this is what I call the sprinkling of fairy dust! Shallow enough so that you can still discern what’s underneath. The snow that fell here has already melted and for that I’m glad. The first day is wonderful but then it just makes walking a nightmare. Methinks the weather you’re having inspires crumpets and tea! Lovely photos! 🙂

  8. Very pretty and peaceful. I saw a robin today. We shouldn’t see them for another month. No snow here and while I love the clear roads it has been a very odd, snowless winter.

  9. Oh goodness. I’m so cold just looking at it. I love the way it looks in pictures. I just don’t like living cold. Keep the hot chocolate and marshmallows coming, my friend!

  10. Wow! And I thought I got a lot of snow here! You definitely got me beat. I love the snow, it’s so beautiful and pristine. I hope you were able to go out and enjoy it a bit.

  11. Awesome snow pictures. I really like the softness in the pictures, brings out a feeling of soft and abundant snow. The last photo is my favourite. Must have been great with all that snow, that is if you like snow…
