winter doing her thing
Although it seems like much is resting this time of year, when you look closely you can find all kinds of things living out their destinies. Leaves are rotting, pods have dried out, seeds are falling.
I took these photos this weekend. The weather has turned cold and drizzly; we're hiding out inside. Even my Noticing photo will have to be taken indoors today.
Oh, look! Now it's snowing. I suppose the seeds from these pods will have to wait a little longer.

High in the 70s here today, it's crazy. Back to highs in the 40s by the end of the week. I really like that second photo.

I love the last image especially; I was just looking at our rose of sharon pods the other day thinking of taking a picture of them :)

I love your blog, very inspirational! Just to let you know I have recommended it for a local newsletter's article on sites and blogs. The newsletter is for young families - a local branch of the National Childbirth Trust here in the UK. And reading your blog inspired me to add one to my newly operational website. We are lagging behind a little in the blog world in deepest darkest Hertfordshire! Happy New Year.
