Snowy Scenes

We like to go into the woods right after a significant snowfall.

I love the way all the trees have tons of snow on them.

Like this little tree.

Just look at the pile of snow on it's branches!:

Even bare branches had SO much on them:

And I love the less-traveled roads in the winter:

It is so quiet out there.



When the road curves, you can't even see what is ahead.....





All day long, the sun was trying hard to come out.

This is the closest it came...

just a glow in the sky:

Believe it or not, this is a river.

That little "C" is the only open spot.

And if you look close, you can also see some deer tracks in the middle of the river up towards the top of the photo:

This is looking to the side of the road, into the woods!
Snow, snow everywhere!:




Another lovely winter wood scene:






This branch laden with snow was hanging over our truck when I stopped to take a picture.
Yikes!:


I am hoping the sun comes out sometime this week, so I can get out and take some more shots in the woods....



I prepublished this, it was actually written on 1/12/10...



Did ANYONE see the sun during that week?

By the time this post is published (on the 19th) the weatherman is telling us we will have sunny, warmer weather then....hope he is right!!
