This Crazy Mixed-up Kind of Winter

This has been a crazy winter and we have definitely gotten our fair share of the craziness. From heavy snowstorms, then rain and ice, and now fog. The fog is not your regular fog, either. It creates a frost that encases all of the individual branches on the trees, much like ice storms do. I have a few pictures from early morning, just after the fog had rolled away. The effect...a very ethereal feel to the outdoors, especially during the soft early morning stillness.

This tree is in our backyard; in the cow fields behind us. I wish I had been able to fully capture the feeling of that morning.


I have also included a closeup of the bush/tree in our neighbors part of the yard.
