Absolutely beautiful photo of winter in the flesh! Looks so peaceful. That bench would have loved it if you cleared off the snow and sat down for a bit. That’s assuming, of course, that a bench could love anything! 🤗
Silence is golden they say, but here it is sparkling white.

Thank you, lovely Ginger! It was lovely with the snow gently falling (and not thinking of the shovelling that ensued!). It’s funny, I did air down on a bench further down. Very wet (glad I had snow pants on).
Silence was sparkly white.

That bench is probably like “Yo! Mother Nature! Will you PLEASE stop busting my hump with all this snow! I mean, for the love of all things merciful, just take a week off and go on vacation or something!”.
Oh well, he’s got spring in his sights.

I wonder if he finds irony in the statement “I feel like an ass”? Just curious.
Spring? Wazzat? Although I shouldn’t joke since we get it here once a week, followed promptly by colder weather.

Hahaha! Everything is just relative, I should think 😉
Spring… Lemme see… from the pics peeps below the 49th parallel are sharing, it’s something to do with flowers and budding? I fear I won’t see much before the end of April – if I’m lucky.

I don’t know, maybe Mo Nature will retire. Of course, if she retires the way Tom Brady retires? Then never mind that, it means you probably won’t see much before the end of April, if you’re lucky.

She may not retire but lemme tell you something; her work has become rather sloppy of late. I’ll just have to find another way to bring spring to my step.
