The way the pine boughs are drooping from the ice is what I remember most about winters in the south.

Just like these pictures, it had clung to all the trees and shrubs. The whole area reminded me of the movie 'The Lion the Witch and the Wardrobe' and it's Narnia snow covered scenery.<br /><br />Snow can be a pain, but when you get piccies like this it's wonderful to behold.Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09542425639950850366noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3915113069723845995.post-79343012253230891062010-02-04T23:42:55.958-06:002010-02-04T23:42:55.958-06:00Hi Betsy!

Your photos looks beautiful ... a winter wonderland!<br /><br />To answer your wuestions: The Russian Tea Room is pricy ..just an entree alone would clost about $40 so that is why a three course dinner is so good for $35 a person.<br /><br />No, this will be the only special restaurant we will visit for restaurant week this time around. We will go somewhere else during the Summer restaurant week. We like to try different places, new experiences, but do it on a budget :-)Pat @ Mille Fiori Favoritihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08922525910685129822noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3915113069723845995.post-971639384479209272010-02-04T21:51:30.817-06:002010-02-04T21:51:30.817-06:00I love the quiet of the snowfall, the beautiful sp...I love the quiet of the snowfall, the beautiful spread of white across the landscape, and yes, I love how it clings to the bushes and trees.

I didn't even know there was a difference but soon learned that some will drop their leaves in the winter and some don't. Some have berries nothing eats and others have berries everything eats. Some are prolific spreaders and I like them for that quality. Anyway, I can't imagine what else that is looking so neat in the snow.<br /><br />Thanks for the visit to the birds blog. I spent an hour this morning watching and taking pictures of the now resident Sharp-shinned Hawk. What a young male comic he is. He is learning how to hunt and find himself a meal. I hope he soon gets luckier than he was today or he will be one thin bird and he is not as wide as the board he sits in which is 6 inches.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
