Snow is falling on the dry Texas prairie ............

 

just yesterday the grounds were dry and crisp and I was in the middle of a confrontation with a hungry coyote.........

you can see more of this beautiful creature by visiting my country blog

Eggs In My Pocket

In the wee morning hours, the snow came..........

I love looking out the window of my studio in between my stitching and watching the snow fall.

Before any stitching this morning,

Sophie and I headed out to say good morning to the chickens

and to take a walk in the woods. The snow was blowing

and all was quiet and still. I thought about sitting down and enjoying the solitude of this moment, but the seat had already been taken.

Underneath this white blanket, the fish are slowly moving..........

The faithful old mesquite tree that has always guarded our back yard

knows a secret, hidden beneath it's mighty limbs............

a message that spring is soon on it's way.

Here's hoping that wherever you are,

 you are enjoying the beauty around you and that you are safe and warm.
