when she came for a visit and Norway obliged.  Snow and ice and frigid temperatures.  Here’s a bit of what it looked like in the park that you who follow my blog have come to know so well.

I know it’s not as much as in many places, but here, snow comes and goes, not usually comes and brings the deep freeze with it. And I’m still battling my desert-thinned blood.

Amazing how much redder the dogwood branches seem after a snowfall –

Just two weeks ago, this boulder dividing the falls was totally under water in the flooded river.

Ice on the rocks –

This island was underwater as well two weeks ago.

Minus 15C on my thermometer this morning……. I guess it’s beginning to look a LOT like Christmas.
