nope.... ... it can't be wordless today..

so it is Word Wednesday.... and the word is snow. About 5 inches now....

After I shoveled... I took a walk around the neighbourhood and got a few pics....














.... a lovely drooping rose.....














everything is still green... fall didn't even happen.... and now....winter......











crabapples didn't get picked...and are still clinging.... saw a magpie and a squirrel in the same tree, busy nibbling some fruit....



























...lovely green fronds of a weeping birch... touching the snow covered ground.....














aha....the mugho pines
didn't mind a bit...














the roses on the other hand probably wondered where the little pointy white hats came from....

Oh, your poor poor roses! Is the snow supposed to stay? Our winter is arriving early as well, but no snow thank goodness! What a year.

The pictures look beautiful. Rob came over to visit us, he said he was glad he was away during that dump. I said that I actually miss the snow. He thinks I'm crazy, when we are still experiencing hot days over here ;).
Take care.
