Mother Nature can’t take hint

One of the magical moments caught by Marianne Love's camera Monday was this one of horses among cedars.

About five new inches this morning---that's how much snow fell over night, and it's still coming down.  Fortunately, it's fluffy, so it moves easily.

Tomorrow's March.  

Will Mother Nature get the hint that we are pushing away from the table and really would not like another helping of that white stuff, even if it does make things pretty?

Probably not. 

Yesterday afternoon it snowed and some of the scenes were magical.

Some of the footing was not.  I slipped and fell in the afternoon shortly after going to the road where walking would be easier.  

That ice is still hiding underneath the snow waiting to for moments when we least suspect to give us a hard wake-up call. 

Fortunately, everything, including my camera, still worked when I got back up/Marianne Love, Slight Detour. More here.
