It snowed most of this past Wednesday afternoon and night, and it was Betsy’s ideal snow storm.  When we woke up early Thursday morning snow was clinging to everything, as can be seen in the photo above.

The sky cleared a little later in the morning, so we went for a walk.  The contrast between the blue sky and white snow was absolutely gorgeous.  This photo looks up the fairway from behind our house.

I had to shoot more toward the sun to get the picture of the back of our house, but I thought it looked pretty in our own Winter Wonderland.

To say that Betsy was a happy camper is an understatement.  She could barely contain herself!

    That was just a perfect snow, wasn’t it? The kind that clings to everything and isn’t so deep or cold or windy that you can’t go out and enjoy it. Is that a little snowman I see at the bottom of the steps to you deck? 🙂 Great pictures, George. You’ve captured the beauty beautifully.
