Predicted Snowfall, Dusted in and Rained OUT...

Sorry I've been MIA of late.

~*~

I wish I could tell you I've been

on an extended trip to Europe to

visit relatives in Italy that I've

 never met. 

or

 Rejuvenating at a full on

vacation spa.

Somewhere with

breathtaking views,

and when the sun comes up,

 it takes my breath away...

but alas...

That would be a lie!

They are real places in my heart,

 that I dream of

visiting someday...

However,

Back to reality...

I've found myself so excited

on the predicted snowfall, promised

by our weathermen for our area

this week!!!

Only

to

be

left

totally

disappointed!

I wanted to wake up to a blanket of

white snow that was serene,

ever so quiet

and

BEAUTIFUL...

I LOVE SNOW!

We don't really get a lot of snow

here in the Pacific Northwest,

like you may think!

Two years ago we got more than

we've had in years

and I LOVED IT!

~like this~

(my summer coffee spot)

This was from the snowfall two years ago, the flakes

were fabulous, it truly was a white wonderland!

~it snowed several more inches after this picture~

~My McGiver out feeding our critters~

Our predicted snowfall amounted to a little

dusting of snow followed by hours

of rain, so I've pulled these

delightful wonderland pictures

out of moth balls to

enjoy

what

could

have

been...

It's okay to dream and

maybe it's a healthy way

to while away the

hours,

or maybe  

pick up a

good book,

but best of all,

visit with a

loved one

or

your

best bud!!!

Thanks for stopping by!

Always, Debbie~
