the colors of winter...

i am not a fan of being cold but i absolutely love the beauty of winter...

the world changes from one day to the next.

and instead of just the winter whites (which i LOVE), 

there are 50 shades of gray...

soft muted greens...

pastel sunrises...

browns and blues and 

feathers and seed pods...

there isn't enough time in a day to see it all.

and tomorrow,

it's going to be different :)

 it truly is a winter wonderland out there

   

  

warm winter wishes...

winter came early this year...

if it stays this pretty, i am looking forward to it.

if it gets any colder (it was below zero already), 

i want it to end soon.

meantime, i will appreciate the beauty :)

 

home again...

I got to spend a few days in Connecticut this week, which was wonderful.

can you miss a road, a tree, a fence?  yup, you can...

good to be home for a bit :)

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

I love this place and will miss it greatly when we move...

until then, I hope to appreciate every little thing,

not only the look

but the feel...

elegance and beauty...

egrets...

funny word

but beautiful bird

 

 

 

 

 

 



over the rainbow...

there was a wild thunderstorm last night at cape cod.

it made a whole bunch of noise but didn't really produce much rain,

except spits here and there,

but it did produce a lovely rainbow.

I followed the rainbow to the beach, hoping for something awesome -

i'd never seen a rainbow at the ocean before.

I didn't get the pot of gold they talk about,

but the lighting and the scenery were spectacular. 

none of the pics I took truly capture the magic

but whenever I look at them, I will remember. 

there wasn't a little pot of gold waiting for me on the beach

but there certainly was magic, just the same :)
