Un beau noël blanc... Chez nous en France nous bénéficions de températures inhabituelles depuis 3 jours. 20 à 23°C, un ciel sans nuage... Nous pourrions déjeuner en terrasse.
Hi, Martine Alison, and a very happy New Year to you! How nice that you are having a warm spell! We are in what the weathermen are calling a "deep freeze"! Our nighttime low was about 17 degrees F last night - brrrr! But the lovely thing about Reno is that the days warm up and the snow on the roadways tends to melt away. It seems perfect to me!
We have had some snow almost every day since Christmas and the views of the snow covered Sierra Nevada Mountains are just breathtaking! It's a great ski season this winter!
Having a white Christmas made me so happy, Michael. My children were here and it snowed almost all day. It jogged our memories and we shared lots of stories about our snowy experiences when we lived in Canada. We all took turns using the snow blower or the shovels and had great fun! A happy and safe New Year to you and yours, Michael!
I have a friend in Scotland who has been telling me of torrential, unrelenting rains - sorry its not snow for you, Elizabeth. Have a wonderful New Year!
Twas the day after Christmas and what to our wonderous eyes should appear? A blizzard, a bit late, but white as you would want on a Christmas morn. I ran to the market, filled my basket with vitals, drove home slowly glad I was prepared to fiddle away the hours over the next couple days with a stocked pantry. Hope your pantry is filled too Susan, tis the season.
LOL - I did the same, Linda! The city does not plow my neighborhood streets so I always make a mad dash for the food store before the snow comes. Interestingly, the snow doesn't seem to last long on the streets - it melts away, even though the lawns and wild areas remain snow covered. How perfect is that?!!!!
Wow, hope you're enjoying the snow. We're getting lots tomorrow but we got about 2" of lovely slow fluffy snow on Christmas-so pretty. Congratulations on your Santa being on the magazine cover. It's an awesome painting!
Hi, Stephanie - glad you could enjoy a white Christmas as well! Thank you for your congrats - I am elated over that cover! :) It just fell into my lap and I could not be happier! Have a wonderful and happy New Year, Stephanie!
I don't know how or why it happened but I just LOVE the snow and even love shoveling and playing in it! I hope for the happiest of New Year's for you and your family, Hilda, and many thanks for your ongoing support!
