You make snow look beautiful! We got it here once, and even then we were confused (and our plants were confused), i admit I took the day off from work even though it wasnt the kind of snow that would stick around for a few hours. As much as everyone loves California, the frost we get is like those silent but deadly toots that come out of your toddler child- where you're like "What the heck just happened?!" We'll be green one day, and the next we'll be black or a pile of mush, and it leaves me sitting there with this confused look on my face like the wind just got knocked out of me saying "WHaaaa?! What happened?!". Snow is so different, even if it kills a plant it is so magical, and so beautiful.... I'm so jealous!
From the Soil is a collection of the writing and photography of Christopher Tidrick, who lives and gardens in Champaign, Illinois. This blog is the living, growing memoir of my garden and the people whose love for plants gives us a common thread despite our differences and distance.

ReplyDeleteLovely pics!
ReplyDeleteThere's nothing like a fresh dusting of snow! I usually grab my camera too & head out to grab a few images. I especially love in on the evergreens.
