Winter is the season in which people
try to keep the house

as warm as it was in the summer,

when they complained about the heat.

The dogs found a snow fort under the bushes.

Summer toys spray painted with snow.

Awww...poor doggie has ice stuck between her toes. 

Our power was out for two days.  They brought crews

in from Ohio to help.  Apparently, our yard

was the source of their problems {and ours}....

...they discovered a large tree down in the woods.

So they had to call in the tree experts to

remove it.  

Meanwhile, we cooked our dinner on the grill

and ate by candlelight {for the second

night}.

The next day I took a ride to see 

how others were managing without electricity.

Lo sifted through the winds that blow,

down comes the soft and silent snow.

White petals from the flowers that grow

in the cold atmosphere.

What is she doing?

“It's snowing still," said Eeyore gloomily. 

"So it is." "And freezing." 

"Is it?" 

"Yes," said Eeyore. 

"However," he said, 

brightening up a little, 

"we haven't had an earthquake lately.”

A snowy day is the perfect time 

for walking in the woods...

"You do not sew with a fork,

and I see no reason why

you should eat with knitting needles."
