So everyone, everywhere in Canada knows that this is a coooold winter - much colder than usual and here in the Okanagan is no exception. The weather we are having reminds me of growing up in Prince George. It is the coldest weather I have experienced in the 14 years I have lived here. But all this snow and cold does have its upside. We have had glorious sunshine that makes everything just look so beautiful. We are usually socked in with 'valley bottom' cloud about this time of year for days on end. I have to admit, the sunshine is nice! Here are some images from our winter wonderland.
The beauty bush becomes a winter cave....
The sun low on the southern horizon.
Waxy, red barberries under the snow
My sleeping garden.
Hope you can find the beauty in this snow and cold weather... that's all the pictures I could take.... my shutter wouldn't open anymore in that cold...

Beautiful Andrea! Makes me think that I should take some! (but then that means I have to go out in the cold ;0) I am such a woos. And to think I was raised in the interior, but 6.5 years down in the lower mainland made me a whimp ;0) )
Thanks Caroline. I wouldn't be other there, either, if I didn't have chickens and sheep to take care of...
