It's hard not to convulse with shivers when the temperature plummets from +6C down to -15C plus a nasty windchill! Yes, the wind howled all night, the arctic deep freeze pushed our chinook to the wayside but we did wake to beautiful sunshine!

Icebergs and Igloos
Another balmy day with a high of +6C! Yes, the snow was melting and the icebergs were beginning to flow ... on my sidewalk! The perfect conditions for starting another igloo! Haha! Yes, the boys and I ventured to the top of our knoll and started making 'Igloo #2." There is still potentially 2-3 months of winter left ... perhaps we will make an igloo village!
We have the weekend to finish off this one! Have a great one everyone!

Sun, Frost ... GLORY!
It is the life of the crystal,
the architect of the flake,
the fire of the frost,
the soul of the sunbeam.
This crisp winter air is full of it.
~John Burroughs
I know, the weekend is over but it was certainly difficult to resent the arrival of a Monday morning when it emerges with such elegance! Its amazing how a bit of frost and some delicious rays of sunshine can make the stark trees of winter dance with radiance!

A Touch of Indigo
Coffee is the best thing to douse the sunrise with.

Under the Heavens
Well, if heaven is truly above ... I rather enjoy waking up each day under these heavens! This is my favourite time of year ... for sunrises!!! The sunrise palette at this time of year is so incredibly rich with winter blues, salmon pinks and soft hues of yellow and orange. It is definitely the most colourful part of the day ... (at least until sunset! LOL!)
