Winter Wind

Look what blew in from the north! No, hell has not frozen over, but close. It snowed in Houston yesterday. This phenomenon occurs maybe once every five years or so. We tend to get really excited when it does. In this first picture, I was trying to catch the wind blowing the snowflakes around, but my fingers were frozen, and I didn't get any good shots. This was the best I could do. I'm not used to this kind of cold.



Snow on my geraniums


Snow on my mint


Most of the snow melted as soon as it landed. I had to be quick ;]

For Mary.

A fantacy winter wonderland... this how this whole place looked to me, because I don't get to see snow much.

Mary Stebbins Taitt sent me this photo from a walk in the woods, and I thought it might be neat to have it look a little old timey. This was the result!.....Mike Serafin

Snow in California

Wisconsin Snow

A few days after my arrival here in Milwaukee, there were 60 degree temperatures, a 100 car pile up on the freeway due to unseasonal fog, and tornadoes in January. I thought to myself,"gee, this is just like home." Actually the weather back home was in the 70's at the time.

Now it's snowing here again. Yea! I'm acting like a little kid that's seeing snow for the first time. This allium, however, I think is a little confused. He looks like he thought spring was coming a little early. I guess the 60 degree weather here has confused a lot of things.
