  7. I heard you were getting a blizzard there. We had 3 or 4 inches here New Years Eve day. the worst here has been the cold. Looking forward to your snow photos. It's been too cold here for me to go out.

  13. I hope the storm didn't wreak too much havoc in your neck of the woods. We got 5-6 inches here last eve. and today it is bitterly cold(below 0) and very windy so the snow is blowing every which way despite the sunshine. Good day to stay inside and art:):) I just adore your doggie ornament! Happy 2014 Carol!

  17. All of yout pictures are wonderful. We are having a lot of snow, ice and cold here as well, so I can commiserate with you and understand the absence of the angels who are hopefully in a warm place. Your Haiku just flows and always says so much with so little. You are very gifted, Carol. Love it all ... and I cant end without saying that your sister's gift is priceless ...

  19. I've been following your weather, Carol. I don't know what it worse, the over-abundance of cold and snow or the lack of rain we have and unseasonable heat. We are on fire watches in areas of California. Be well. Stay safe.

  47. Beautiful post Carol....I do hope you and the Art Muse dog are staying warm and cozy. I had to smile about your macro comment....it might be a little hard to get a true macro shot in that weather, yes indeed! Brr. Always love your haiku and the one about the angels today is especially wonderful.

    ReplyDelete
  48. The little ornament is adorable. I like your macro shot but it looks cold. I was wondering how the weather was on the East coast, We are cold over here but no snow at the moment.
    Stay warm.
