A Snowy Delight




I love how the berry clusters on our mountain ash caught the snow -- they look like little woolen toques trimmed in red.  Since we're still digging ourselves out from our huge snowfall, I thought I'd hunt up some snow quotes... found the following at thinkexist.com.



"Sunshine is delicious, rain is refreshing,
wind braces us up, snow is exhilarating;
there is really no such thing as bad weather,
only different kinds of good weather."
~ John Ruskin


When it snows, you have two choices:
shovel or make snow angels.
~ Unknown


"Kindness is like snow
~ it beautifies everything it covers."
~ Unknown


"The future lies before you
like paths of pure white snow.
Be careful how you tread it,
for every step will show."
~ Unknown


"Advice is like snow; the softer it falls,
the longer it dwells upon,
and the deeper it sinks into, the mind."
~ Samuel Taylor Coleridge




Enjoy your day,
Brenda
