Frosty beginnings

The new year is off to a frosty start with the ice queen paying a visit again.

Her crown is a bit different this year, but still gorgeous. I watched Frozen for the first time over Christmas, and then read the orginal Snow Queen fairy tale.

In the real world we are facing crunchy ice-capades with cars as the mounds create ice boulders that make parking an issue. Nonetheless, it still looks festive in some places.

I like this Narnia-esque landscape in spite of the cold. The blanket of snow softens the winter a bit and creates a clean slate (fleetingly).

Here’s to a 2016 full of possibilities and an abundance of inspiration from nature and other sources.
