Sunday Selections was originally brought to us by Kim, of Frogpondsrock, as an ongoing meme where participants could post previously unused photos languishing in their files.
The meme is now continued by River at Drifting through life. The rules are so simple as to be almost non-existent. Post some photos under the title Sunday Selections and link back to River. Clicking on any of the photos will make them embiggen.
Like River I usually run with a theme. It is winter here. And one day this week the weather reminded us. Forcibly. The wind howled all night (bringing down trees and powerlines across the city). Snow was forecast. And when I got up the next morning it had arrived. So I headed out just after first light. Those of you in the Northern Hemisphere will probably snicker at our relatively insignficant fall, but it was more than we have had in the city for years. The snow melted relatively quickly but the wind continued all day and we didn't reach double digit temperatures. The wind chill factor meant that it never felt above 5C/41F.
It was pretty though. I was (for a change) grateful for MS which means that I rarely get cold, and himself and the cats were very grateful that our heater (which had been non-functional) had been fixed the day before.
Later that day we headed off the arboretum to see the annual Warm Tree exhibition. Photos to follow later.
