Winter Scenes

We got some snow last night. Our normal morning walk revealed a world covered in snow.

A swampy area in the forest preserve near Salisbury, Vermont.

An old apple tree stands along the road.

It has stubbornly held on to its apples.

This low rock walls usually makes it into my snow pictures. The old wall is three feet high and almost that wide. It provides a home for many, many chipmunks and probably some squirrels that can't find a home up in the trees.

The sky was blue and the sun was trying to come out. But the clouds persisted and created an odd colored sky.

The snow that covered the trees is almost gone only a few hours after I took these shots.

Another taller rock wall.

These smaller pine trees look like they should be decorated with lights for Christmas.

I'm sure there will be many more opportunities to take snow pictures this winter. Hopefully some that have sunnier skys.

Of course all my walks eventually lead to the lake. These chairs and fire ring will probably not be used again until summeer.

The sky is still overcast. All the snow and ice in this picture are on the lake. The lake isn't really frozen but the snow covered the surface. It will be gone soon only to come back later and try again 🙂
