Fountainesque

This fountain in our Japanese garden was quite impaired by the cold weather we had!

It was left running because the pond is full of fish, and given how shallow it is, they might have frozen in our recent cold snap. So it was still struggling along, with what looks like a collapsing volcanic snow-cone around it.

Here’s a similar view in black and white. which one do you prefer?

Happy Friday; happy weekend.

Winter Evening Skies

We had a rainy day but the evening skies were beautiful with cloud striations and a nascent sunset partially obscured by overcast.

A pink and orange sunset pushes through the overcast and brings the leafless branches of the winter trees into stark contrast.
A cloud river nestles against a mountainside as the setting sun highlights the overcast.

Happy Thursday.

It’s Warmer!

After our unusual and record-breaking Arctic blast that was quickly followed by a Pacific Ocean storm which dumped a record-breaking load of snow, it seems we are back on track. That means that we will return to our regularly scheduled rain, but in the meantime, we had a day of cloud clearing and sunny breaks accompanied by a pleasant temperature.

Cloud breaks over the mountains.
The weak ice near the shore of Okanagan Lake is starting to break into small pans.

Happy Wednesday.
