Spring or Winter ?


Yesterday we drove by a tree dressed top to bottom in pink spring blossoms!
Today, was back to winter wonderland !

Since last May, when our friends from the deep south out for a Canadian vacation decided that they would love to come in winter I started praying for snow.

They are arriving here on Saturday and there is more snow in the forecast!
I apologize to those who don't agree with me ... but I LOVE snow ! It lifts my spirits and fills my heart with song ! To me there is almost nothing as beautiful as a winter wonderland !
While I do prefer to stay off the roads, we did have to be out yesterday so I snapped some photos ... from the car window !


For many, a place like Earls -- you can see the cozy lights inside -- was the best place to be !


My world was white ..... lone trees standing in a farmer's field .....


trees so bridal in appearance......

A barn with a red front contrasting with the snow....
A travelling ride park stood silent and empty ... the weather tooo cold for such outdoor activity...


Not everyone was prepared for the snowstorm .... and I always feel bad for those who are hurt or inconvenienced... We counted 7 or 8 vehicles in the ditch on our way home from grocery shopping ...... Some, like our neighbour, had probably already changed their winter tires for summer ones !!!



NOTE - I am going to be on vacation for the next couple of weeks and so my computer will be shut down.

I will be back mid March !!

If you are reading this, I wish you a blessed couple of weeks.... whatever the weather -- Our God reigns over it all - may He also reign in your heart !

Job 37:6 "For He says to the snow, 'Fall on the earth'; Likewise to the gentle rain and the heavy rain of His strength."
