Sunday night I really had to talk myself into going out to the hot tub…

it wasn’t cold, but it was snowing, sigh…

I do not like to get my face wet or my glasses covered in snow, so it was a bit of an issue, lol…

instead of taking my towel out with me, I hung it on the inside handle of the patio door so it wouldn’t be covered in snow when I got out of the tub…

made sure to put my peaked hat on over my toque… it had a bit of snow on it when I got back into the house…

on my way upstairs I took a picture of the garden, looks pretty but it was still snowing…

well, I didn’t break my streak… there have only been two days I haven’t been in since January first, both when the temperature felt like -41°C…

it is cold out…

this morning I had to replace a safety pin that is helping to keep the garage door closed…

thought I was pretty smart when I figured out that by pinning a cloth over the lock mechanism the door will stay closed in the colder weather…

then as I drove beside the trellis I stopped, rolled down the window, took my gloves off, and got a few pictures of the snow on the leaves…

been looking at it every day as I move up or down the driveway…

silly to decide today, when it is -40 with the windchill, that I need to stop and take the photo, lol…

variety…

over the last few days we have had a variety of weather… really cold days, with a nasty windchill, and slightly warmer ones… then there was time when the snow was melting… crazy…  

there has been quite a bit of overcast sky… on Sunday I caught this picture of the backyard… the bunny is just under the trees…

 
everything was covered in a dusting of snow and looked so pretty…

later in the day the bird feeders in the front yard took centre stage…

  
Monday, the sun was out and I got a couple of shots of it going down behind the clouds across the creek…

 

last evening as I was waiting for a ride to aquasize I spent a lovely few minutes watching the clouds scoot across the sky as the sun was travelling down…

often when I am waiting for a ride I have my phone in hand and am focussing on two or three things at the same time…

not this time… wonderful…
