Patience is not about how long someone can wait... It's about how well they behave while they wait.

Winter on Granite Mountain

After last night's light dusting of snow and the fog coming in this afternoon, Mother Nature gave us a treat.



Sitting cozy inside, we could tell there was something very neat happening outside, so I headed out for a closer look.



Do you see it?


Beautiful, delicate, crystal spikes of ice.... on all the plant life.






It looked so much like cactus to us, I could almost imagine I was back in the Nevada desert.... except my fingers were FREEZING.







We really enjoyed this unexpected gift and hope you enjoy seeing the pictures as well.
