Serendipity

We made it through both a bad snow storm and the polar vortex plunging us into negative numbers during the nights especially. Sunday night the temp here with the wind chill was -23°! Burr... The snowfall itself dumped about 12 inches on us, not too bad but still a pain to have to clean up. I took the time to document the storm, from beginning to end. As it began Saturday Jan. 19th, mid afternoon 2 hours later at twilight the next morning... across the road from us The depth of snow on a roof cute little pine tree various depths shows the depth of the snow my favorite tree up the road the wind that came with the storm and after, blew snow onto my window ledge. I live on the second story no less!  Thanks for stopping in! Have a great day! Deb

As I am known for inspirational quotes on my Facebook page, Serendipity ...I would like to share some here that I found on a website via Oprah .  I have a fondness for quotes like this, as they become a reminder not to belittle myself, that there really is hope out there for us, as well as helping me with my own bouts of depression.  I truly hope that of these, you will find one that will sing to your soul. And with that, I bid you all a wonderful day! Remember, "LIKE" my page on Facebook and stay updated!

We started seeing the leaves changing colors in early September. First came the yellowing of various trees. 9/12/12 Sugar maples  went quickly into the pinks and reds. 9/17/12 Other trees across the hillsides began to show signs too... 9/23/12 Now, we really are beginning to see the hillsides evolve into more and more colors: 9/26/12 While some trees are only just beginning to lose the green in their leaves. 9/27/12 Sadly, it isn't long after the leav...

I have always had a love of quotes, and over the last few years have acquired many that I have either added to various photos (my own or others), or have found online...specifically on Facebook. I'd like to share them with you...and let their beauty touch you as they have touched me... [**None of these photos are mine and I claim no ownership of them.]
