A little dusting of snow

A little dusting of snow

I was so happy this morning to find out that a layer of snow had finally made it down South, it was only a very small amount but I was so excited! I love this season and absolutely adore the snow, we didnt get any last year but I remember there being lots of snow the year before that. My little allotment however, has never seen the snow (well not in my care it hasn’t!) so I raced downstairs, pulled on a coat and some boots and headed to the plot with my camera.

Luckily I was able to capture the snow before it melted, and sure enough an hour later it had vanished. At least all this cold weather is doing wonders for the garlic, fingers crossed for some delicious large cloves this year!

    The snow looks so much prettier on your garden than it does on the street outside my window. 😉

      Haha I know what you mean. That grey slushy stuff on the road sides? I do wish it snowed more here though, it is a beautiful season 🙂

    We had heavy snow a few nights ago but it was already dark. I was jumping around excited about all the awesome snowy plot footage I’d get but by morning it was gone! Glad you got to capture yours.

    I grew up in snow country. Most people are exhilarated by a fresh snowfall. I like the smell of it, too. Your second photo with the trees in the distance shows a lovely greyness. Dad on the right?
