Photos from the weekend

So HOW did it get to be Wednesday already??  Anyway, I took some pix over the weekend and here is a sampling.  It was a glorious few days, the snow melting made it a little chillier than it could have been, but I embraced it!  :)  Most any snow you see here is now gone!  Monday and Tuesday's warmth took care of it, and Wednesdays rain should take care of most of the rest of it.  I can't even discuss what they are talking about for Wednesday night into Thursday.....

It was sunny enough and snowy enough to be charming over the Christmas long weekend.  Definitely a good time for those of us who enjoy our photography and outdoor activities!  I have a bunch of pretty nice pix here.  I hope you can sit back and enjoy the view!  If you are in a non-snow area of the country, you can be a snow bunny without actually having to get cold.  There are a few non-scenery shots, but I didn't think you would mind!

Tough old oak leaves-  I like their tenacity!  

 It is always a pleasure to review and post my most recent pictures.  I hope you found some joy in them as well!
