I’ve said in a previous post just how much I love winter and I think I am being rewarded by the frozen blog gods for this as yesterday was pretty much the coldest day we’ve had in a long, long while… The weather man said low of -6 (think that was more like -8) and high of -2… Oh the joy!! No, seriously… JOY! I love the cold… Only if my house is warm though. My dogs however do not share my love of chilly days.
At 11am yesterday morning it was around -2 and this is what my yard looked like… No, thats not snow – its a serious frost which would have usually cleared by now… Check out the haziness which is usually only reserved for the wee hours of the morning…
The dogs are never exactly thrilled about venturing out into the snow or frost so it took me until 11am to coax them out for their morning wee but when I finally did I discovered literally ten amazing frosted spider webs scattered around the yard in our frosty fruit trees! It was so beautiful and it’s times like this that I wish I was a much, much better photographer so I could really capture it the way it should be…
Here are some of the pictures I managed to capture of the frosted spider webs…
I hope we have a load more days like yesterday this winter so I can learn to capture better photos of it because I think it’s just beautiful.
Until next time…

OMG Brigie! How freaking amazing are those Spider Web pics?
Very cool photos there Brigit
I love winter so much better than summer. My theory is that you can get warm alot easier than get cool in summer. Ie I can put layers on to get warm but with summer even walking around nude isn’t an option to keep cool because I’d leave puddles of sweat everywhere!! I hate the humidity; give me the cold anyday!!
I miss you
