There is nothing more beautiful than snowy, winter scenes. Oh yes, the ice and slick streets can be treacherous when you have to drive on them, but let me take you instead on a relaxing tour of gorgeous scenes of snow and ice. 
All you have to do is scroll; driving is not necessary. Grab a sweater because the scenes may make you chilly.
It is cold enough and therefore safe to go ice skating, Have you ever been ice skating outdoors?
The sun has warmed up this lake. Can you feel the winter sun’s warmth? There is something about snow scenes on a lake that is so peaceful.
At a time when the holidays bring stress to so many, it’s good to take time out and appreciate mother nature’s beauty.
Click this photo with the Weeping Willow trees to see all the birds on the lake. They liked the scenery so much that they forgot to fly south for the winter.
Nighttime brings out a different feeling in winter scenes.
The snow has muffled all sounds except for our breathing. I can almost see my breath in the air! Can you smell the pine trees?
We have arrived at our destination. Time to warm up with a hot drink.
And maybe a nap in front of the fireplace.
Stay safe and warm this holiday season. HAPPY HOLIDAYS TO ALL!
