I’m with you. Spring can’t come too soon. It’s freezing cold, windy and snowing. Blah. Only 8 more weeks and we might get a break. Fingers crossed.
Your garden is beautiful with the snow. I am jealous! Not just because we did not get any snow here, but there is no snowpack in the mountains, to supply water for the upcoming summer. Winter is not done yet, but another very dry summer appears to be on the horizon.
I suppose that humans are never really satisfied. It always appears that someone else has it better – or something like that.
It looks pretty! We still haven’t had any snow in southern UK other than a very light sprinkling last week. None is forecast for this week and the weather is feeling milder – not mild enough but I guess that is me being churlish!
I am cold just watching this picture! But your garden looks soooo lovely! I can’t imagine how gorgeous it must be in spring and in summer! ❤
I can’t wait for Spring !! My fingers want to start gardening !!!
Looking the same here. We are fortunate to be warm inside.
Oh yes, we are fortunate to be warm inside, I often think of people who live on the streets, it must be horrible at all times but especially in Winter !!!
Such a rich winter you have there! I envy you. The little snow we get here in the UK turns to frost and ice in no time, leaving us dreading morning walks! 0_0
Oh but it is the same here, during the day the snow melts a bit but then in the evening it starts freezing, I couldn’t even open the doors of my car this morning as they were frozen ! the roads are slippery and not only the roads ! give me Summer any time !
I love your winter garden! But I too am tired of cold and bluster. Need to get out and hike the green again!
I am so tired of Winter, my fingers are starting to itch as they want to garden again !! and we all are desperate for sun as Winter is very grey here and wet and windy…..
we are loving the long shots in your garden, as we’ve been trying to piece together its entirely since we first laid eyes on parts of it in your blog.
how big is it? seems so vast from afar. acres and acres of lovely everything.
amazing snow pics. we got snow too. about three times as much. but we are used to it over here in the midwest. were you surprised to get so much where you are? how are your green budding plants feeling about it all? and how are you doing?
pardon us for asking so many questions, but cats are curious, arent they?
we can’t help it…
hugs,
o and om.
Tthe piece of land we built our house on is about 900 square meters but the actual garden isn’t that big as all the buildings (house, garage, birdhouse, aviaries, greenhouse) take a lot of space, I hope I can get more complete pictures in Summer.
we get snow here but not that often and a little bit brings chaos to the roads, I hate it ! but my buds outside can handle it very well as all I have is winterhardy, the other plants are inside. don’t mind you asking so ask away, hugs to you and sweet odie !
Love that you have many buildings and settings to enjoy.
What is your birdhouse like? Odie says, “tasty”
Hugs, O and om 🐱.
Oh no, the birdhouse is not tasty, it is not mine but my husbands, there he breeds his birds, also the aviaries are not tasty as his birds ruin all the plants you put in it, but the birds thats my husbands (over the top)hobby, I take care of the wild birds who come to our garden, birds are made to fly not to be kept in prison !!!
What kind of birds does he create? I agree birds should be free. Odie like them best when he sees them playing outside the front window in our large pine tree.
Hugs, O and om 🐱
he only breeds canaries and he goes to exhibitions with them and he is a birdinspector (all hobby) and he writes articles about birds and he writes a whole birdmagasine all by himself and does the photo’s etc etc….all hobby !!!
Someone likes birds!! More than odie.
Though I do wish all birds and cats could be free.. Thanks for sharing Gwennie!
Hugs,
O and om. ♡
Your garden is so lovely in the snow! It is good to see a dusting, and not feet of it piling up waiting for you to shovel it away. I hope you’re warm and dry, snuggled up with a cup of tea and a good book 😉
Oh yes I am but my children and my husband have to go to work and the roads are slippery…..Summer is so much easier !
Well I hope everyone has safe journeys! We’re looking for ice (maybe snow?) here by morning, but have no commitment to go out until the roads are clear. May spring settle soon across your garden! Wg
Here in the States this is Groundhog’s Day. Punxsutawney Phil, the groundhog, came out of his burrow and saw his shadow, traditionally that means we’ll have 6 more weeks of Winter.
ouch !
I feel your pain!
Wondering if February is not your coldest, as is supposed to be our hottest? Nice pics…brr.
February usede to be the coldest but….sometimes we have an early Spring, sometimes we go from Winter to Summer….. the weather is confused to say the least !!!
It’s beautiful! And makes you appreciate spring all the more when it comes.
