Photo- Finish Friday -- Cold Beauty

Frost has its charms

Photo-Finish Friday -- Frosted West Edition

I went for a drive yesterday. It was one of those fine winter days where the frost covers everything in a glistening white coat.

This was taken about twenty miles east of Rocky and looks toward the west.

Frost, the Other F Word

Is the one in the middle waving?

We had a frost warning last night so I harvested our tomatoes.
There weren't many this year. I collected 35 of varying sizes and left about a half-dozen small ones on the vine as sacrifice to the frost gods.
They're resting comfortably under the bed in the spare room, covered by newspaper.  At some point in the future they'll be ready to eat. And we'll enjoy every bite.
Happy September, everyone.

Return of the Frost Fairies

It was really quite cold for a few days lately and that always brings out the best, most artistic of the Frost Fairies.
They spent many a long cold night drawing their delicate patterns on our screen doors.
I've always been a fan of their work. I hope they know it.
