Chasing the snow by happypat

Chasing the snow

I was determined to find a snow picture for Alex before she went home. I wanted to put her in front of a snowy hill but we never got near enough unfortunitely & the snow was melting fast in the beautiful winter sunshine.
Freezing hard now & the roads are icy....we just got home before dark.
We had a late lunch at the Applestore Cafe above Scorton.....bacon & free range egg rolls, coffee & afterwards a cake each.

Three good things:
1. I saw on the news this morning how in Cumbria the Enviromental Agency are picking up unsold Christmas trees & lining the river banks with them. They stop bank erosion & are there to encourage nature....I thought it was a brilliant idea! Planting used trees on the beach at St Anne's too to help with sea defences...we might take ours!
2. A good walk after a hearty meal.
3. Heated seats in the car!
A fabuloUs winter scene!

A beautiful scenic view with the sheep in the foreground !

The hills aren't high so the snow must have been very near the foreground too. Those black faced sheep must be grateful for their woolly coats!

It's amazing how quickly it begins to melt away. Lovely shot. Glad you had a good day.

Beautiful pastoral scene with the sheep--the juxtaposition of green grass and snowy hills is very interesting to study.

How good that it snowed for Alex. I phoned my sister last night and she said it is snowing in Worsley too.

A lovely shot. Nice for Alex to see the snow. You will miss her company when she leaves.
