And now you know why I so look forward to Spring – Actually the snow has almost melted, but the pond is still frozen. We have had some days in the high 40s. When the day is bright and the wind is calm and the days are above freezing, it is good!

  1. I work as a "high end" gardener and I think your garden is lovely. In all the seasons.

    Happy WW!

  4. Gloria, your garden looks lovely in the snow. But, I know what you mean, can't wait for spring.

  5. Gloria, being a fall person, I especially love the third shot. The transitions seem slow in real time, but the difference between the seasons becomes so apparent presented like this. I'm amazed how much of your pond disappears under the winter snow though!

  7. Will, thank you - Today the temperature hit a amazing 50degrees - The snow is almost all melted,except for on the north side and that ice might last until spring. I went out and raked some leaves.

  14. Brrr... Despite the toll it takes, there is something beautiful about the garden all tucked under a blanket of snow, don't you think?

  18. Hi Ts - Thank you - the pond has fish that live in it all year. They go sort of dormant in the cold. I keep at least a hole open all year to keep the water healthy. Lot's of birds visit

  19. Hi, Gloria!
    Brrrr! I hear you've had some chilly days. I'll bet the fishies are shivering in the pond.

    Just stopped over to wish you a very Merry Christmas. Thanks for the call the other day. It was great to catch up with you. ;D

  21. Gloria, it's so much fun to see someone's garden as it changes. As you said, four pics are worse a thousand words (or more). Merry Christmas.~~Dee

  22. Gloria, I love these four-season comparisons. It's clear that your garden is lovely in any season! Happy holidays. -Jean

  23. Hi Gloria, what a superb and fascinating way to illustrate the seasonal changes. I am inspired to try a similar thing but it won't be nearly so dramatic since our seasons are not nearly so variable. (It never snows). Hope you had a lovely christmas and happy new year. cheers, catmint
