Beautiful Cold

Winter came, just popping in to remind me that he is on his way.

No resting on your laurels, miss c.

Winter is still a gentle voice in the distance, but he is on the road. 

But so beautiful, this cold. I guess the spiders are gone. Their webs are frozen solid.

I shot the Daily View early. So you could see what I felt. Are your fingers feeling that cold?

And then I encountered an interesting problem. Because the cover of the old temperature gauge is broken, the inside was all iced up and misty. I wonder if we will even be able to see it when it gets really cold. This will be interesting.  However the maxi/mini tells it all. A low of 18 I guess.  Minus 7C. Not too cold yet.

It is 24 (-4C), out there, as I write.  That is still within the bounds of live-able cold. And the sky is bright so we will have a good day.

I wrote an adequate number of words yesterday, but today, after visiting the Old Codger, I expect to get in a good afternoons writing.

You all have a lovely day.  Please feel free to steal or share any of these images. I don’t mind sharing.  My favourite for my pinterest page today is the one with the treehouse in the background.

Rug up warm..

  1. Had to put my fleecy on by second picture and make a hot cup of coffee by no 3. I am now sweating 🙂 it is 33 deg C here today. Would a bit of clear tape over the bottom of the cover not help? Love the pictures but not the temperatures. Enjoy your day. Laura

    • Though I cannot vote, being a foreigner and all, John will toddle off to the next town where the line will be short and it is a quick zip in and out. Nothing like the terrible waits city people have to endure. c

  2. We had frost this morning also. Just put the winter-weight duvets on the bed. Stay warm, regards to the oldie, and happy writing this afternoon.

  3. hi c! we still have not had a proper frost though it was 26 degrees this morning. we have been covering pots and fountains and such. hunkering down for winter. i sure hope we get some this year!

  4. We’re layered-up here as well…it made 27 this morning, and we’re going for a bright, sunny 45 for a high…the wind has a knife edge.
    The dog is in my office, rather than out stalking things…

  5. We’ve not had the hard frost you’ve had. The Lake is still relatively warm and shields us this time of the year, buffering our temps. Now, don’t feel jealous, Celi. We’ll catch up soon enough and then we’ll have all that lake effect snow to deal with — and still you laugh at my snow blower! 🙂
    Have a great day!
