My Wintry World.

Here in Scotland the weather is not USUALLY too hot, too cold, too wet nor too dry and for quite a few years now we haven't had much snow. I have not worn winter boots for years but over the past week winter has returned with a vengeance with temperatures dipping well below zero (degrees centigrade) and over a foot of snow. Just as well this is largely a holiday period as most cars in the village, whilst they may make it down the snowy, icy, as yet untreated hilly roads, none but the 4 wheeled drive vehicles can make it back home.
It does look lovely in the bright winter sun though.
To see more seasonal photos, some wintry and some not, look here.

You have more snow than I have at the moment here in Ontario, Canada...although I confess it is snowing now.

The weather has been very strange, hasn't it?

Your snow looks so lovely. Bet you never imagined you would get so much white stuff! It is just starting to snow here for the first time this winter (west of Toronto)

Winter sun alone already sounds magical! It's nice to look at the guys pushing the car. Happy holidays.
