Here in the “almost desert”, we get pretty excited when we are treated to any kind of precipitation. Here is what’s happening in our neighborhood today:
This is the red oak tree just outside of our front window:
Have a great Tuesday everyone!
Mike and Kellye
Oh wow Kellye, those are some amazing winter scenes. What lovely sights from your windows, I assume you are cosy and warm inside? We have just landed on the Greek island of Naxos, which will be our home for the next three months. Daily temps are around 13 degrees, though we are based in a mountain village in the centre of the island, so evenings are actually pretty chilly. Take care and say hi to Mike.
Leighton, I only appreciate snow when I can stay inside and look out at it. It will be gone by tomorrow. So glad you are at your next destination safe and sound. Stay warm and safe. I will be looking forward to hearing about Naxos. Hugs to you and Sladja!
My family and I loved Naxos! You have to rent 4-wheelers one day and take them all over the island. That was our favorite memory and the beautiful sunsets 🙂
Ah that’s great that you’ve been here Lyssy! We’ll be here for 3 months, the first 6 weeks of which we’re based in a small mountain village called Moni in the centre of the island.
A snow globe how beautiful is that. Love the tree with its contrating white and black. Such beautiful pictures.
Beautiful shots of the snow and tree!! Enjoy it while you can!
Thanks, Sandy.
This is how I like to look at snow – in someone’s pretty photos 😀 It does look lovely but I’m not a fan and can’t wait for spring now!
I’m a fan today and today only, Sarah. It’s because we needed the precipitation so badly. The snow will be gone by tomorrow – yay!
Beautiful….we’ll be seeing some snow very soon….
Pretty crazy, I imagine! Wonderful! 🙋♂️
Oh wow! This is what it looks like here too at the moment, but we are pretty used to it being in Canada! Enjoy it while it last, and stay warm!
Thanks Vanessa. It’s pretty rare for us and we got seven inches. It’s almost gone now – 24 hours later.
Such a beautiful winter scene!
Thank you!
The fluffy snow looks so refreshing. Snowball fight? 😀
No snowball fights, though the wet snow would’ve made good one. I just like to sit inside where it’s warm and look out at it.
Beautiful photos. Enjoy the snow
So beautiful! NYC is experiencing the longest snow draught. Hopefully we get some today.
Looks like a winter wonderland Kellye. We have not had any significant snowfall here since just before Christmas, which is highly unusual. We are now at the end of our January Thaw (temps of +8, +3 and +5 C for past three days) and will soon be back in the deep freeze, with day time highs of -14C and below. Yay?? Have a great Wednesday.

How lovely to get a dusting of snow. Stay snug and warm indoors!
Beautiful images, and I shall live vicariously through them, Kellye. All rain once again here and as I often note, if the snow doesn’t come for Christmas and New Year I’m quite ok with it. We had our first snow flurry two days ago, and while we have had rare occasions when we’re this deep into the season without measurable snow, waiting for flurries this long is really weird. Enjoy!
Looks so magical with all that snow. We had a major snowstorm yesterday. My back is a bit sore from shovelling all that snow.
Our snow comes and goes so quickly that we don’t have to shovel. Thank goodness. I hope your back recovers soon.
Kelly these are such an amazing winter. Very snowy and beautiful images.
Thanks Anita
Thank you, Anita!
Beautiful pictures of the snow! Tennessee gets very little snow and when it happens people go a bit crazy. Is that what happens there when it snows?
Yes, a little bit. By the way the shelves empty at the local grocery stores, you would think we were getting several feet of snow!
Great winter scenes!
Thank you!
My gosh, how beautiful!! Thank you so much for sharing 🙂 We are in shock here that we’ve only had a dusting, we usually get much more. I’m a huge snow lover, I adore it. These pictures made me happy!
Aww… thanks, J! I love that the pictures made you happy.
It looks beautiful from the inside. Luckily we have not had that much snow this year. I like looking at it, but hate driving in it.
Those who live in wet places want only to see the sun. But those in dry climates want the rain. That snowfall loos beautiful. Happy Monday Kellye. Allan
Thank you, Allan. We’ve only had about 5 inches of rain this year so far.
