brrrrrr its cold

Like the rest of the country we have had snow all this week starting on Monday and this is what it was like when we took the dogs for a walk in the woods.

On Tuesday we went down to Porthmadog and it was all clear down there but we still had plenty up here.
We live behind the Moelwyn's and you can see clearly the snow line.

Yesterday it was still snowing after a lovely sunny morning when I was able to walk the dogs . I meant to take my camera to the woods as the snow has gone into quite deep drifts in places and the dogs had great fun in them.
This a quick shot of the back garden and needless to say I haven't ventured into the shed lately :(


Today I am going to the Lleyn Christams dinner , we always have it after Christmas which is nice. I have to drive to Caernarfon and a I hope that the roads will be clear. We have had yet more snow overnight and showers again this morning.
All this cold weather has meant I have been sitting in front of the log burner a lot :) and am getting on well with Tony's sweater. Thank goodness we have a cosy cottage as I can't bear the cold and it plays havoc with my joints.

Roll on Spring

That second pic is so incredibly beautiful! I guess I didn't realize you lived in Wales. I have been to Scotland and the coast of England. When I lived in Netherlands we took the boat over and landed in Newcastle.
Someday I will visit Wales.

Lovely photos...we had our snow down here last week.....but strange to relate they forecast sleet/rain on Friday night which we had on the coast but 2 miles inland in a valley in the South Downs it again had turned to snow.

Some beautifull pictures. We have had quiet a bit of Snow but nowhere near as much as I thought we would and no where near as much as the rest of the country

Lovely photos, Anne! We haven't had anything like the snow that was predicted here in N Lincs (a bit disappointing really!). The snow's falling atm, but I reckon it won't last...

I love your photos. The snow looks really beautiful. I always used to love snow but now it means I'm trapped in the house as I just can't get the pram out so I'm not too keen on it. I can still appreciate how pretty it makes the world look though!

I love the picture of the mountains. I must tell my daughter to look at it as she already loves "your" mountains having moved to Bangor in September.
She was home last week when we had over 30cm of snow in Surrey.
