Like so many others this morning, I was surprised to wake up to snow on the ground. I got out in fashionable wear, for all early morning photographers; shorts, Ugg Boots, and my fuzzy bathrobe. (If any of you see pics of THAT on Facebook or Twitter, please send me a link.)

I started in the entryway, moved to the back yard, and then into the front yard. It is at that point my attire may have drawn attention. Or not. Maybe they are used to it. Maybe they have other things to do. In any case, fashion aside, these are the images I captured.

Entryway shade garden plants, up close and fairly personal:

The neighbor’s lilac bush overhanging the fence:

Weeds I need to pull or “whack.” But aren’t they pretty in snow?:

Leaves of the lilac bush out front:

Sunshine and snow on pine:

It’s the last day of April, 2011. Have a great Saturday!
