Take A Walk With Us: After The Storm

Sunset Meadows

Winter keeps rolling on and so do the storms. This past Thursday a good sized storm came through and lasted into Friday.  By the time all was said and done, we had about 12 more inches of snow and a fresh coat of freezing rain that glistened over everything.

The sunsets on these stormy days have been so, so pretty.

Despite the freezing cold, I took to Sunset Meadows with my camera in tow.

 



 


Just as we got cleaned up from that storm, another came in on Saturday and dropped several inches of more snow. This time, wet and sticky............


............making for a winter wonderland of sorts.

I was hoping to get pictures yesterday of all the trees covered in snow, but the wind picked up and blew everything off by morning.

And so it goes.

This week, as always, lots of design projects on my plate - revision rounds on some projects as well as new designs.  I worked on some over the weekend as well to get a head start on the white board list (did I tell you about the white board yet? G bought it for me and I have to say it is working out rather well so far).  I'll also be starting to pull together plans for the next muse online magazine, so be sure to stay tuned. I hope to have even more great content and readership this time around, after such a fantastically positive response to the inaugural issue.  Once again there will be advertising opportunities, which I hope give my sponsors, the chance to reach new people.

What's in the works for you?

Ciao for now,

  1. Wow, that looks gorgeous! I mostly dislike snow, beccause it quickly gets all yuk-like and slushy over here. If it would like like this, I might like it :-)
    I'm not up to much. I want to try to do some drawing and maybe I'll finally succeed to make some new brooches!

    1. Hi Marieken! I remember you saying you weren't a 'snow girl' so to speak. Since mid january it hasn't let up here! pure crazy snow! I know what you mean about it getting icky quick, so there's the plus side of back to back to back storms.....it has no chance to get ugly! love your brooches......I've been eyeing Frida.

    1. it's really been pretty. as soon as it starts to get ugly, we get hit with another storm and it's all fresh and new. I generally love the snow, partly because I have a home office and don't have to clean off the car to go anywhere, but the damn frigid temps this winter......that I could do without!
