Breaking Ice Moon, Feb. 17, 2011

Finally, we had a nice warm evening and relatively clear skies to catch the Moon again! And She was lovely.



The ice on the lake was breaking up.


I was fascinated by the colors and patterns in the ice. I decided to name this Moon "Breaking Ice Moon."


Sky Moon, Ice Moon.


Silly geese, lots of them flew over but none would fly in front of the Moon for me.


More lovely colors in the ice.


Moon caught in the ice.


Hail, Lady!

A Wee Fog

There was this fog yesterday morning, first saw it on the previous night while driving back from Lawrence. It is another nice sign of warming, warming weather. I am smiling.

And then there was thaw...

I thought I'd do some "during and after" pictures of the current thaw. February 13 and then February 15 in my yard and driveway.







And then...

There is green! This little tiny probably perennial probable weed might stay green under the snow and ice all winter. But right now, I just love looking at something green. I'll take it!

Waiting for no more snow...

I haven't posted here in a month, but in that month, we have had plenty of snow. More than plenty, if you ask me. And I've pretty much been NOT taking pictures of it.

This coming week it is supposed to warm up. I would love to take some pictures of the warm. At least I hope to find smaller piles of snow, maybe some mud, and perhaps even some tiny tiny hints of green.

Wait for it.
