OMG..these are breathtaking Carole! Lucky you to have such a wonderful view. I doubt we'll be getting a White Christmas here. Toronto set a record in November. It's the first time it HASN'T snowed in November in 70 years. Two years ago we set one for the most snow in 60 years.

Carole What a view to wake up to in the morning I think I would be tempted to sit at the window ALL day. The only thing I dont like about snow is I make myself housebound, always scared in case I fall- because they would need to hire a machine to get me up !! and I wont go out in the car either- big coward me!!
Carole I hope you are feeing a bit better. I know how you must have felt when your son went away I feel the same when I come back from France even although they are always at the end of a phone its not the same as having them beside you.
Does Cicco ( hope I've got his name correct) enjoy out in the snow?
You take care and rest when you can
Love and God Bless
Emmy xx

We had some snow today, here in NY. It was a wet snow..mixed with rain, at first. It only stuck to the grass.
I dont ever wish for a white christmas, because we have to drive to my kids (a half hour). I used to sleep over on xmas eve, but I wasnt getting much sleep, making xmas day very tiring and not enjoyable..so we began to drive home..and then go back. The parkway from here to there, is very winding. There is a road, before you get to it..that has a lake..butted right up against it. You could pobably spit from the car window, into the water. This lake is on my side, as we drive home. I close my eyes till we pass it.
We came home from there in the snow once..what a nightmare. It took us an hour. In october, we went one night, and it only rained. I wouldnt let my husband take that road or the parkway. We went a different way..which took us a half hour longer..lol
Those mountains are beautiful. Like a picture postcard. You are lucky to live there, Carole.

Thats a lot of snow.
I remember a couple of times, we had big snowfalls (a foot or two)..and it drifted against our door. We had a hard time trying to get out..since the storm door opens out..and the snow was against it. Luckily, it seemed to only happen to one door..so you could get out the other one and go around and clear it.
I love to look at snow...especially when its on pine trees. Only, I prefer to do that from the inside, looking out.
It is freezing in NY this morning. 17 degrees with the wind making it feel like 2.

Carole, gorgeous pictures. Well, now all of us on the East Coast of the US know we will have a white Christmas, either with new snowfall or what was left behind this weekend.

They said no snow for Christmas on the east coast. We are now expecting rain (so they say) on Christmas night.

Yup, us too. It was supposed to be a heavy snow fall but now it looks like light snow and freezing rain. One more reason for me to stay home this year.
