We had the most unexpected of blessings today - a snow day. On a Friday to boot. What a great way to start the weekend. And tomorrow, highs in the mid-60's. It was only a dusting but the roads were icy so the city was paralyzed. We can handle 110 but 27 and ice isn't really our thing. ♥
Sweet photo:) Very rare to see snow in Austin. We got more ice here in SA.
ReplyDeleteHow good to have you back here. A lot of us have been like our gardens, lately. Dormant.
ReplyDeleteWhat a winsome little bird. The day off was indeed an unexpected winter treat. While I realize most of us were at home and warm, I kept my fingers crossed for any who were forced to venture out. I hope you were all able to return to the comforts of your own homes and loved ones, safe and sound.
I hear ya! We don't do snow well either. Enjoy your extra long weekend...It is fun to be held up for a day and just enjoy.
ReplyDeleteIce is much more difficult than snow. How nice that you had a touch of snow, too, and some time off to appreciate it! I'm so thankful that we have snow coating the earth this winter because we're having near record-breaking cold, especially at night. I hope I won't lose any perennials. Enjoy your nice long weekend!
ReplyDeleteWe haven't had any snow at all in the UK this winter - just lots of rain!
ReplyDeleteRight?? 110 no problem, a little snow and 27? Shut the city down. Ha. It was pretty though if only for a few moments while it lasted.
ReplyDeleteWe've been locked in a deep freeze and think some of my shrubs may die. :( But a little snow is fun in the winter, especially when it's unexpected.
ReplyDeleteVery glad to have you back. Enjoy the snow while you have it. What a wacky winter.
ReplyDeleteWow! I didn't know you got snow days in Texas. That's quite a dramatic temperature swing too. Happy New Year!
ReplyDeleteCool...we had a snow day because of the frigid temps...
ReplyDeleteI would find 110 hard to bear, but snow, ice and freezing temperatures are an everyday thing. I guess it is just what you are used to! Stay warm Cat!
ReplyDeleteIt snowed here in SA too! Just a dusting but very cool nonetheless. And yes, Texans become paralyzed with a little snow. But it's a nice change indeed. Glad to see you back!
