What I Like About Winter

Throwing snowballs for my dog's to catch
The first snow of the year that covers every tree branch and glistens
Snow days from work!

Snow Doggie Angels in my yard made by Buddy. :D
Paw prints in fresh snow.
Doggie snow faces and noses.
CRUNCH, CRUNCH, CRUNCH of the cold snow.

No bugs

I get so horribly homesick this time of year. I have a cousin who works at a ski resort in Truckee...perhaps I should go visit her!

Maybe ES but not within the next few days we have a couple of huge storms coming in.

Another thing:

Suddenly warmer days that feel so much warmer than they would have two months ago

The odd sensation and siight of fog caused by evaporating snow in warm moist air

Church services by fireside
(In January and until Palm Sunday each year, we worship in the church parlor, which has a lovely fireplace, and is a cozy space, rather than a large majestic one.)

Yep today the sun came out after our deluge and you could hear all the neighbors doing their yard work like it was summertime.

I have to agree with this comment. ;)

Winter? What's that? :confused:

What I like about winter is that the days start getting LONGER!

And I'm another one for this:

Silly, that's when many of our neighbors become your neighbors!

On a cold rainy afternoon, being able to snuggle with Max. I'm in my cozy flannel nightgown on the couch and the fireplace is going strong keeping us both warm. I'm watching a good movie on TV. :) I could stay there all day.

Moonlight making twinkling diamonds in the snow, snuggling under a cosy blanket with a huge new book, making "winter food" like delicious soups and stews...

I used to love to watch RB dog Sam slide around on the ice and wonder who pushed him LOL!
