Mother Nature blessed us with a dusting of snow last night. The little one bundled himself up and made many a footprint and a few snow angels first thing this morning. Spot the cat escaped out the back door and pulled up short when he realised he was standing in this chilly white stuff. He sniffed around a bit and came back in. We have many neighbours who came here from Guyana. The amount of snow on the ground is so small that it doesn't come up over plastic flip-flops. (Guess how I know that!) The weather is supposed to warm up tomorrow - I fully expect this snow to be totally melted by then. It didn't occur to me to get a snow shovel out. But my Guyanese neighbours are more careful than I am!

It looks like our snow sprinkling, lovely winter wonderland (not brave enough to venture out there in flip-flops though)!
ReplyDeleteit's exciting to wake up to snow! not a snowflake in sight here in virginia...60 and sunshine! a pretty snowy view of your street...keep warm!
ReplyDeleteWhat a great "Schenectady" shot. I've been there in snowy times (MANY years ago) and I remember it like this.
ReplyDeleteWe're getting a little bit of this now.
ReplyDeleteI am not looking forward to my street looking like this. But it is pretty, in a way. :)
ReplyDeleteThanks for the peek into your world. I smiled when I enlarged the photo and saw your neighbor shoveling the snow. He'll learn.
ReplyDeleteForget the snow, the houses are wonderful. Late 19th century maybe?
ReplyDeleteThis looks like just the right kind of snow: you can outwait it and let it melt. More than this and it starts becoming a way of life, including the mandatory shovel.
ReplyDeleteYep, it looks normal! I think this is the way most neighborhoods look, all over the country. Our town was incorporated in 1925 with older homes having been built only around 1910-11, so there's no established heritage, really.
ReplyDeleteIt looks so cold. It would be great to experience a white Christmas, just once.
ReplyDeleteThis southern girl spent a winter in Cedar Falls, IA and one in Neenah, WI. I will never be the same. We still don't have our coats out down here. Stay warm!

You've got a little bit of Americana right here.
ReplyDeleteNever having experienced snow my entire life, I'd probably react exactly like Spot.
ReplyDeleteBeautiful shot. I envy your dusting. We are really late with our snowfall. I am starting to miss it.
ReplyDeleteHi Buck, thanks for comment on Nelson DP. We are heading to summer so the snow covered street look somewhat refreshing. You might felt other way around in my post. Have a nice rest of weekend!
ReplyDeleteWe awoke this morning to a very heavy frost - I'm sure the snow will be here before long.
ReplyDeleteYou already have snow? Nice shot!
ReplyDeleteI am impressed by the snow...
ReplyDeleteA real Christmassy setting, thanks for the comment and the poetry link. nice.
ReplyDeleteA very nice seasonal street scene. Like you, we have had only one light dusting of snow. Thanks for stopping by on theme day. All the best!
ReplyDeleteSo amazing to see the virtual opposite of my street!! Snow vs Summer - not sure what I'd prefer!!!
ReplyDeleteSo many comments! Thank you all so much... I have never had this many comments before!
