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..

I remember this feeling of creeping cold from childhood in Canada. This is a magical post and brought back memories!
It was 23* when I left for work this morning and everything is covered with heavy white frost.
We had snow last week from Hurricane Sandy. We can handle the cold and snow but hate the wind. Your spiderwebs look elegant!!
These frosty morning images, especially the first two, are simply stunning. Even in cold, beauty exists. Remind me in a few months that I wrote that, OK?
Lovely pictures. Brrr.
Brrrrrr – stunning images!
Beautiful shots today of the frost. Love the one of the sunrise and also the fence with it’s frozen cobwebs. We too have -3 degrees Celsius weather this morning. I’m off to look for woolens and other warm underclothes for my kids. Stay warm!
Simply wonderful! HF
I love the one with the tractor. Such beautiful photos, but for some reason I feel like I need an extra blanket now!
Fantastic that you got out there for these beautiful shots Celi. One good wind and those frozen webs will be gone.
I know you can’t vote, and I imagine you probably feel the same as I do because I can’t vote in England either while I love her and want to protect her, but I hope that whoever is elected today will do what’s best for you, your family and your adopted country.
Beautiful photos, but they make me brrrrrr. We have a bit of fall color here but a lot of green on the trees still. Our low temps at night have gotten into the upper 30s-lower40s range. So our changes are never as dramatic as this. The Daily View shots are amazing. Wouldn’t it be fun to take them and do a time-lapse slide show, like one of those little flip-drawing books we used to make as children? Did you ever make one of those? Like animation drawings? Have a wonderful, productive writing day, and stay warm!
I sure got a shiver with your photos–not sure if it was the cold or the beauty.
Wow – it’s getting cold here, but not that cold yet 😉
Brrrr. Chilly through the screen.
The German called to say her Person’s heat is not functioning, but the German doesn’t mind being a snow babe originally…and is looking forward to dancing in the snow….fine for you, I said. (and didn’t I say ALWAYS keep a sleeping bag around – you just never know…silly moms)
Give that Old Codger a howdy. Bet he has some winter tales
Stay warm and get some rest sometime, Celi!
That has made me feel very, very cold. I’ve just come in from cutting firewood but the temperature is around 16C – so I’m feeling a bit silly:)
Your images are the first I’ve seen of old man winter, to come….Beautiful but Brrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrr!! I see Big Dog out there with his cozy on!! 🙂
isn’t he cute..
