Colors of Winter...

Or lack thereof......
Hope it is warmer where you are, because it is cold and everything is very drab/lacking in pretty colors here.  After watching the national news today, I am very much aware it is much colder in other parts of the country.  Makes me shiver just typing that.
Linking up with "Mosaic Monday"
                           "Outdoor Wednesday"

I  confess - I still have a bit of color in my courtyard.  A real pumpkin left over from my Fall decor is still sitting outside my back door.  I suspect it is frozen at this point and when things thaw out, it will collapse into a pile of mush.
********
Hope everyone is having a great week and staying warm !!

We're at 5.4 right now, expecting a low of -25 tonight, no kidding. Thank God for heat. And down comforters! I don't think I've been out of the house for a week. A foot of snow and way too cold, hopefully by next week it'll be a bit more bearable. Happy New Year, Glenda!

Happy-happy New year Glenda. Its going to be yet another fabulous year isn't it?

I'm tired of the cold already and we have a few more days of it. Snow maybe on Monday!

We're still hoping for some real winter here in the south--one nice snow storm would be good. The frozen fountain photo is amazing! Good depiction, the collage, of the cold.

So far it has been unusually cold here in Ontario. It just makes us all long for an early spring. ;)

Very, very cold here! Low temps we haven't seen in long time. Brrrr.

Not terribly cold on the west coast. I'm wishing for a little snow.

We're buried under snow right now and as a Canadian, I'm used to it. We just dig out and carry on. :-)

Hello Glenda
Oh I wish I could send you some of our New Zealand sunshine!!!
Most of my blog pals are either in Canada or the States so I'm aware of the harshness of your winter.
Beautiful photos - you will enjoy looking back on them once the weather warms up!

I'm visiting from Mosaic Monday.
Take care on those icy roads.
Sending you warming hugs and a locket full of sunbeams!!!
