  4. Hi Clare & Amy,
    I really was drawn to that bucket photo. I love how the snow makes the mundane almost magical. The bucket, the top of a wooden post, my glove dropped in the snow because I was too busy taking pictures to bother with keeping my freezing fingers warm. . . suddenly they become art.

    Hi Abe/Happy,
    Hmmm. What does snow feel like? When it's freshly fallen, hardly anything. You can scoop up a handfill and it is light and airy and practically weightless, yet you can crush it together and form a ball. When snowflakes land on your tongue, they are just the tiniest, instantaneous taste of melting cool. When it is very, very cold after it has snowed, the fresh powder becomes loud and crunchy when you walk on it. When the sun has melted the snow during the day and the cold air has frozen it again in the night. . . it turns to slippery ice--and it feels extremely hard if you fall on it! Does that help at all? : )

    Hi Sha,
    Finest resolution for my pics? I guess I have a lot to learn about my new camera! Oooh prints. Won't that be fun. : )

  6. Boy, I know that glove in the snow image. I've left my gloves here and there over the years, and sometimes I have found them. Other times the critters have found them first and gnawed them into uselessness (for me, anyway).

    P.S. I am so glad you blog!

  7. Hi Kathryn,
    Thanks so much and welcome to the farm!

    Hi Pablo,
    Ahhh yes, do I know about misplaced gloves. But if you look back at this one, you will realize it can't have been laying there for long, as it isn't covered with snow! Actually, I dropped it while I was taking one of the other photos, and I thought it looked kind of neat, so I just took a picture of it, too. : )

    P.S. Thank you!

December 2015 update: Hi! For some reason I can't figure out, Blogger hasn't been letting me leave comments on my own blog (!) for the last several months, so I've been unable to respond to your comments and questions. My apologies for any inconvenience! You're always welcome to email me: farmgirlfare AT gmail DOT com.
