What a Difference!



















It has been snowing a lot all day long and the landscape looks now like a perfect scenery for Christmas.
We (Harri & me) just came in after having a good evening "gym exercise" in the garden. Someone would think we looked like two snowmen. I cannot emphasise how happy we are with our Yard-Man! It is a big snow blower (from Canada!! : ) ) and it really saves us from serious trouble in the family... Harri was driving the snow blower and I was shoveling those parts that could not be done with the Man. Now, comfortably sitting in the living room with a good cup of tea under our noses.

This is how it looked here yesterday, bright sky, sunny and birds singing everywhere.






































And this is how it was today. What a difference! I didn´t want to go out too much today.

I am always amazed at how much Finland looks like Michigan! Thankfully our snow here is gone but back in my hometown, there is still a lot of it. A good snow blower is a must! I'm glad you enjoyed your day in! :)

Merry Christmas...wait no...happy Easter! Snow should not fall after Easter. It should be a law ;)

I know it shouldn't be snowy after Easter but it is SO pretty! We didn't really get any snow this year and usually don't get much :( This makes me feel kind of warm and cozy :)

I agree it should be a law not to get snow after Easter. But Uncle, you´re right, it was kind of cosy inside, like a bear in the cave. ; )

Lovely pictures, the snow has not been this pretty in England for years, we have only had damp sleet showers so far this year!

Oh I know this scene all too well - hope Spring comes to you soon!

This kind of pictures - especially the last ones - show a bit of a 'mysterious' Finland in the snow. The one with the tree seems to tell a whole story! Very nice. Groetjes, Marjolijn

Such delightful photo's of the snow and of its determination to stay - a wee while longer...

Joy is in seeing blue sky alongside and the birds in tune.
