A Snow In Smallville

We’d been told to expect snow last Sunday and all we got was rain and a bit of an ice storm, so when they once again predicted snow for yesterday, I was skeptical. Especially since the entire day was cold but dry.

But then, around 8PM, the snow started, and we ended up with just a couple of inches but it was enough to make for a pleasant change and some purty pictures.

That top photo is one of Carlos’ Camelia's he planted along the back fence; the bush had seven or eight blooms on it today and its sister plant had about three, though they were a much darker pink.

That there is Casa Bob y Carlos in the snow, with a few large branches that came down from the combination of snow and ice and wind.

And this is the backside of the house; the sunroom, even with skylights covered in snow, was one of the warmest rooms in the house today.

Ozzo followed me around outside, but then even he had enough of cold paws and started the trek back to the house.

Here’s another angle on the camellias, with more blooms.

Lastly, the holly tree at the end of the driveway. I like it pruned like this and now I know why … it’s so pretty with the leaves dabbled with snow.

And there you have a wee snow day in Camden. The sun is out, the roads are clearing of snow and ice, and it’s gorgeous out here today.
