the blizzard of 2015




Crashing

If this was last week at ABC Wednesday I could have done B is for Blizzard!!

I will have to settle for Crashing waves.

This is the latter half of the Blizzard of 2015.

It had been snowing and blowing here for about 24 hours 

when I took this picture at about 4:30 last evening.

It snowed for almost 30 hours

and this morning dawned gray and white

with continuing rough seas.





watery wednesday

    Wow, this is incredible. As horrible as those crashing waves can be, being out of harms way and watching them land where they do it's a magical view! Stay very safe.

    We had much the same, minus the waves. Didn't dump near what they forecasted, thankfully.

    Wow! Such a dramatic sea! Since you're posting, I'm guessing you did not lose power. Now the worst is past ... for this time. Take care!

    Looks like you were hit with the worst of it. We were very lucky here in NY with only 8-10" which is not too bad. Maybe this will be the worst of the year. Your photos are beautiful!

    Wow, that first picture is beautiful. I can not imagine living right on the coast there and having those waves so very close to my home. I am sure on a good weather day there is nothing more beautiful than being that close to the water but on a bad weather day-YIKES!

    And so it continues for you -I cannot relate at all to this type of weather. Such a powerful part of nature with a mind of it's own!

Deep peace of the running wave to you.
Deep peace of the flowing air to you.
Deep peace of the quiet earth to you.
Deep peace of the shining stars to you.
Deep peace of the gentle night to you.
Moon and stars pour their healing light on you

Abby and Hopie time

  ~ ~ ~ Abby and Hopie go to the beach. On Saturday my granddaughter, Abigail, asked if she could come to her Hopie's house all by herself. Of course, I said I would love that! Her older brother, Verne, wanted to go to a friend's house and her younger sister, Natalie, is too young to be away from mum for an overnighter. So...it was me and Abigail for the weekend. She wanted to stay 2 nights! I think she may have been slightly motivated by the need for some alone time and Natalie's late night crying. ~ We cooked homemade cornmeal waffles together for breakfast. When your grandmother is a Montessori teacher you learn to cut your waffles up by yourself. You can see the concentration on her face.  I didn't help at all! Verne's first day of Kindergarten! I drove up in the morning to watch him get on the bus! He loves it! On Monday morning Abigail and I drove back up to her house. My daughter, Hannah, came over with delicious donuts and Bonnie made a breakfast of bacon, s

a basket from the farmer's market

  A basket from the farmer's market. When I was a child my mum always had a fruit basket on the kitchen table.  Fruit was always an option if we were hungry at any time during the day. I had the same when my children were young and I noticed while visiting my daughter last week that she had a basket of apples on her table for her children. The apple doesn't fall far from the tree... I tend to put a basket of vegetables on the table as well.  Root veggies mostly since they don't need to be refrigerated.  I think that they look beautiful and why should fruit have all the fun! My favourite part is that everything (even the basket) came from the local farmer's market. It's so important to support local farmers.

 ~ ~ ~ A bit of reading material.  I've been collecting books again... I've almost finished Think Indigenous.  My daughter bought it as a gift for me but decided to read it first. She loved it so much it took her a bit to part with it. I am loving it as much as she did and have put it down almost all the way through  because I don't want it to be over.  Macro tex
