The new snow that fell overnight was coated in a thick layer of ice. The ground looked like a great big ice skating rink. And the icy tree limbs were catching the glow from the late afternoon sun.

Last Christmas had a wintery look, but this year with the recent rains that melted much of the snow and exposed some grassy spots so it was more of a brown Christmas instead of a white one.

It doesn’t take long after a snow fall for the critters to stomp down the snow and create their own highways on my lawn, especially heading towards the bird feeders.

Even though there was snow early in the month, today is the official start of winter. But after shoveling the new snow today, I was thinking that it would be nice if it was the end of winter instead.

The sunshine today helped melt some of the snow off the tree branches, but the snow was still deep to walk through it.

The hoarfrost might not have adhered to the pine trees compared to the other trees the other morning, but snow from last night piled on the pine branches. The limbs were weighted down from the 14 inches of that white stuff and you didn’t want to be standing under one of those branches when the wind dislodged the snow.

More of that white stuff is falling this evening so by morning there may be some more white decorations on the trees.

Overnight Mother Nature decided to decorate for the holidays with a new white coat on the trees.

The string of nights with temperatures in the 20s has formed an ice layer on my pond, but there was a small patch of open water for the morning’s sunrise to leave a pink reflection.

More snow fell overnight so by Sunday morning, my driveway disappeared as it blended in with the rest of the white covered lawn.
