    I did post this pic in a different thread. But I thought I would post it again on it's own so you can see what a great artist Jack Frost is. We had fog in the morning one day and everything was covered in Frost. It looked like a Fairy land. I just wish the landscape pic showed it better.

    We had a frost like that last night Tooty then it snowed a little early this morning. The snowflakes lying on the surface of the frozen, frosted pond made it look just like lace cloth had been laid over it. I wish that I'd taken a photograph to let you see it.

    Mskitty: I also call it hoar frost. But that word can be kind of yucky sounding if you know what I mean. So I like Jack Frost better. It sure looks beautiful either way.

    Eileen that would have been really neat to see.

    Glad everyone else who posted liked the photo's. But I to can't wait for spring to get here.

    We had the same thing....but I agree..patiently waiting for spring and to have all of my plants come in the mail... I want to play in the dirt.

    Tooty2shoes...have you listened to the news with the older people passing in Wisconsin. I can't remember the name of the virus but I did hear them mention it is in the soil and water. I hope I hear more about it soon.
