Snow Flower

Amongst the gray of the mid-winter storm, a bit of brightness.

(I've been missing from ipernity for over a week - storm situations take basically all my time. But I will be back eventually.)

[Edit: We are back home and things are settling down both weather and logistics wise. Happy to be able to be on ipernity again!]

Thank you. It was a surprise! Mostly we have broken branches (full trees) down from fully wintered trees due to the storm. So I had to give this flower its due.

A California ice-flower that migrated to Oregon? ;-)
Beautifully composed, Laura.

3 months ago.

raingirl ^club has replied to Edna Edenkoben ^club

Thanks. And haha - I have no idea. There were two in the snow and I could tell it was from a plant there as opposed to something someone dropped from a bouquet, but not which one as everything else was either covered with snow or ice.

Edna Edenkoben ^club has replied to raingirl ^club

OK, so not a migrant flower. But it's still a mysterious story. Are we ever going to find out what had really happened? I guess not...so we could just make up our own story ;-))

raingirl ^club has replied to Edna Edenkoben ^club

Ah, to be a story teller!
Now that I have a grandson, I should probably start writing some. You can help me *smile*

Thank you.

Yes, the freeze and the freezing rain layering ice have finally gone away. Left with lots of rain (normal for us for winter) and some wind. I'm still recouperating from the intensity of it all.

This kind of capricious weather can indeed be very exhausting, both mentally and physically.
I wish you lots of strength and energy, Laura.

Thank you so much. Though it was the flower's idea, not mine *smile*.

We are basically back to normal, though we still don't have our home phone service.
I like grey and rainy weather, not very fond of wind. Hope you are okay with it.
peace.
