I ventured forth to fetch the mail down at the end of the lane today. I and my pink snow boots had to tread carefully on the slippery snow.
But we were treated to a nice view on the way back up....
And along the way I spotted a little something I thought was worthy of a portrait...
It's amazing how something this small, because it is darker in color absorbed just enough warmth from the sun to start to make its own little shelter in the vast whiteness all around it.
Anyway, we have staved off cabin fever for the time being. Time to put another chunk of wood in the Bruce and have a hot tea.
