Merry Christmas!

Our garden has been put to bed for the winter, but we still enjoy the glimpses we see from our windows, and on this shortest day of the year, we dream of the day next spring when things will start coming back to life in the garden! Meanwhile, we want to wish you all a very merry and blessed Christmas!

Let it snow, let it snow, let it snow!

December 8, and we're getting our first real snow of the season! Isn't the red twig dogwood beautiful against the white?
Fortunately, all the birds have flown south for the winter.

This moisture is so great for the trees and grasses. Love snow...as long as we're watching it from inside a warm, cozy house with the fireplace blazing.
