Never Trust the Weather

Very little snow all winter – until now, a week into March…!

Yesterday it snowed and snowed (and with quite a strong wind blowing too), and I did not set foot outside. Today I did, though. Just for a short walk around the neighbourhood – but I still needed all the winter gear…

There’s always a certain magic to fresh and untouched snow.
Even in the month of March.

Why no children out playing? you might ask. The answer is that these photos were taken around 1 p.m. on a weekday, and at that time of day most children would be in school or daycare…

Panorama view over football (soccer) field with untouched snow.

When I got back in and looked out onto my balcony, there was evidence that “someone” had come calling while I was out… but changed their mind! (…right in front of the balcony door…)

Little bird footprints! No food about, he may have been visiting for a handout. Wow, this is a considerable amount of snow!! We have had almost no snow either. But supposed to get some this coming weekend. I bet it will be just like yours. I find a certain sad beauty in a deserted playground. The animals on springs are looking for the children! I like those swings! Two seats and a tire.

cute prints in the snow... good thing you have your bright spring kitchen to counteract the late snow. it is beautiful and I like the swing sets alone in the snow

Your little visitor saw that you weren't in and went away again :-)
I agree, fresh snow has something magic to it. But I am sorry for the animals and plants that were all ready for spring. Hopefully, it won't last long and not become too cold.

Your snow is pretty. The month I spent in Oregon it was 24 days of rain out of 28. But it was so GREEN....that was nice.

All it needs is blue sky and it would be perfect - well for pictures not for living with.
