Snowy Greetings

[click image to enlarge]

A few flakes from the 16" snowfall landed perfectly on one of my door decorations. I love the snow but abhor the ice that is coating my stairs, walkways and driveway; it's treacherous under foot. Orthopedic surgeons must be in overdrive at Quincy Medical Center.

Your so lucky to have snow.

Beautiful. No snow in San Diego but I'm looking at some great pictures with snow all over the world. Thanks for sharing. Merry Christmas.

I beg your forgiveness for my cutting and pasting – yet constantly reworking – this comment, but there was no way on Earth I would be able to make it around the whole globe to wish everybody a Merry Christmas otherwise.

The magical elves that constitute my staff have demonstrated their lack of respect in either not showing up for work at all, and those that have all seem a little worse for wear, if you catch my drift. All they seem to do is sit around smoking cigarettes that, quite frankly, smell funny. And they play cards and tell dirty jokes rather than do their jobs! Consequently, the reindeer are all filthy and out of shape. And you know, the two rabbits, one wallaby and three wombats I’ve drafted in just don’t cut it as replacements.

Anyway, from myself, Henry and Ezra, have a Merry Christmas/Winter Solstice/Hanukkah/Festivus and a happy New Year!

I hope that all of your holiday photos turn out to be triumphs, your stocking is stuffed full of lots of tasty treats and not coal and that all your pumpkin pies are all as sweet just the way that you like them.

This tiger swallowtail butterfly was a delight to see pollinating the phlox bed along my driveway.
