Frost


the season's first frost

All that is gold does not glitter,
not all those who wander are lost;
the old that is strong does not wither,
deep roots are not reached by the frost.

J R R Tolkien

  2. This is truly beautiful. We were in the high 90's today. I would welcome that. In fact we will be taking a little trip to Tahoe and the weather report is for very cold weather.. Packing my warm socks, boots, and heavy coat. Looking forward to it.

    1. I can't even imagine the 90's right now! We are gray, damp and cold today! Even got a little snow this morning! Hope you enjoy Tahoe....that will be a wonderful reprieve for you!

  3. We had our first frost a couple of weeks ago. Isn't it amazing to look at the crystals?

    1. Now how is it that you had frost before us? :) We had a tiny bit of snow this morning. That was a show to wake up to! But it was 29 degrees!

  4. Hi Betsy - our first frosts are coming this weekend - whether I get them this far south remains to be seen. Lovely photo ... and the Tolkien quote is so appropriate ... cheers Hilary

  5. Be glad when frost comes near
    But snow will never get a cheer
    For the heat has to go
    At least the frost leaves no lawn to mow

    1. Pretty, isn't it? I think it was the leaves that
      gave it the contrast it needed!

    1. Thank you. It was so pretty I had to tip toe outside in my jammies and
      take it before it melted! :)

    1. It sure is! The only thing better is when it's sunny and it
      gets all sparkly! :)
