Gloomy, Windy, Chilly and Grey

most of January

We haven’t had much of a winter so far this year. We had a bit of a cold snap but most of the month the temperatures sat above freezing and there was very little snow. Any snow that we did get only lasted a day and it was hardly worthwhile getting out the snow shovel. I’ve really missed the sun but the next three days look good.

The ongoing greyness really gets to you after awhile. It’s quite depressing and I had to force myself to get outside to go for a walk.

I’m really looking forward to the next three days. The temperatures during the day will continue to be above freezing for the next 10 days but after Tuesday the sun will disappear again for at least five days. Better get out and enjoy some rays before they hide behind the clouds again.

Installing the Black and White Show at WAAC

probably one of my favourite shows

On Wednesday I spent four hours helping with the installation for the Black and White Show at Women’s Art. I love camaraderie when working with this talented group of women. It’s a beautiful show and I hope those of you who live close by will come downtown to check it out.

Sunday Trees – January 7, 2024

now that winter is upon us, my tree photos are mainly of bare bones

On Saturday, it was so windy by the lake that not even the trees could shelter me from the biting cold.

Cee’s Which Way Challenge With Snow

thanks to Cee for hosting the Which Way Challenge https://ceenphotography.com/2024/01/04/cwwc-which-ways-with-snow-or-the-color-white/

Last night we had our first significant snowfall this winter. My husband was out early shovelling the snow on our side and over at the neighbours on the opposite side of the street.
