wine country snow day
as much as i love heading up to mount hood for snowshoeing, we received enough (6 inches of powder!) right here at home for me to trek all around the property.
maybe it's my inner 12 year old, but once i was in and safe last night, the magic of snow took hold. i sat at the window watching oversized flakes and could hardly sleep. when i did finally doze off, it was with thoughts of how much i couldn't wait to wake up and play!
snowshoes on and camera in hand, i adventured for several miles, enjoying both the quiet and the laughter of neighboring kids who are also excited about their day off from school. my steps being the first, i was able to spot a myriad of animal tracks ranging from deer and rabbit to racoon and feline. (our hens aren't so sure about it. when i opened the door they took a few steps and decided to go back to their heated roost.)
here are a few of my favorite scenes...
and for my next project, a small igloo!
