Hello Gail! Well, Winter is beautiful up until February...then I don't want to see it any longer!! Certainly not in April! YUK!! Fortunately it was our last dump. Many thanks for your sweet not. Much appreciate your effort! #558680

Beautiful winter scene.
Love the snow covered branches, and, of course, the fence.
Very pretty, Dolores.

Bonjour encore, Dominique!
J'ai été dégoûté de l'hiver avant qu'avril soit venu. J'étais heureux que c'ait été le dernier orage!! Merci!

Kathleen, You got that right girlfriend! Enough is enough. I suppose I'll complain again when we are still getting the hot, humid heat waves in October. THen I'll be longing for the snow storms! THanks Kath!

Carolyn, No...I insist, I want to share!! Ha! We went from Winter to Summer with out ANY Spring! Cold and heating our home to hot and humid. I worry about fungus growing in my lenses!! THanks, Carolyn!

Hi Mette!! So nice to hear from you!! Hiding?? Nope, took a year off from competing and shooting to educate myself on equipment. I was quite the ignoramous when I bought a camera body and it needed lenses. Which lens? Which focal lengths? Zoom or fixed? plates and clamps...more storage media...upgrade tripod and monopod because of more weight, outfitting the lenses with filters, flash, etc. It all required education before purchasing. I wanted to choose my equipment wisely so I took this time to educate and learn. IT was much too much money to make purchasing errors. Thanks for your input, Mette! Always a pleasure. Hearing from you feels like I never "left"! That's a nice feeling. #559549
