You do have a beautiful world, but it does look cold and while our winter hasn't been anywhere as bad as yours, it's still been gray, grim and cold and I'm so ready for spring. Your photos are super and I love the lights around the tree trunks! I love Mexican restaurants/food! I even love the falling snow flakes -- well, as long as they're in photos!

This year has been the opposite of the past few years where I live. We had at least some snow at the beginning of March/end of February for several years in a row until this year we've moved full force into spring. Everything is bursting into bloom so I'm hoping it doesn't get zapped by the cold later. Carverhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05968919406427737503noreply@blogger.com
