This coat-wearing tree in a Penticton park has survived the winter very well and has acquired some extra style.
It looks different from October when everything was much leafier, but it’s still as colourful and inviting as last autumn.
There have been some creative additions, including some hanging pom poms and a branch that is sporting new fashions. I’m not sure who is “clothing” this tree, but there are some very fine examples of crochet, beadwork, and knitting.
Very bright and whimsical!
Yes, spring icicles are springing up, or rather, down, everywhere.
We’re supposed to have warmish weather over the next couple of days, so these icies will grow a lot. For safety, I’ve knocked down the ones over the door and will probably have to keep doing so for a while. There’s a lot of snow on that roof!
Happy Tuesday.
I don’t know how they manage to do it!
Happy Sunday.

What a beautiful reflection! Thanks for the share, Stuart.
A long last look …
… because I’m heading north.
We went to Kelowna today and had lunch at a favourite restaurant by the lake. It was quite overcast but still a very pleasant 14C, and the buds on many of the trees are just about ready to burst!
Happy weekend from Kelowna, British Columbia at the north end of Lake Okanagan.
