My, it is cold.
Snow, in downtown Wellington.
It's unheard of. And yet, to see cars driving around today with bonnets and roofs covered in a thick blanket of snow, you would think this was an alpine village.
Camp David is almost a tropical hideaway compared to the chill factor outside - so long as one continues to wear hat, scarf and multi layers inside.
A comparison to the Michelin Man comes to mind.
The photo is blurred.
My hands were shivering.
But the quote is so lovely...
"A flowerless room is a soulless room...but even one solitary living flower
may redeem it."
Vita Sackville-West
I couldn't agree more. So ventured out in the blizzard for a few spring blooms!
Keep warm!

How true that is. Visited the beautiful gardens at Sissinghurst created by Vita when I was in UK a couple of weeks ago. What a dream it would be to live there. Keep warm, hope to catch up soon.xx
ReplyDeleteImagine...snow across the country! I remember walking to school in Christchurch with snow on the ground (just the once, mind you!).
ReplyDeleteDo hope you're staying as snuggly as possible...thinking of you and sending you some Gold Coast winter sunshine.

I've told MOTH that if dares to demolish any part of the house that exposes the outside light during an Adelaide Hills Winter, a Family Court Registrar will be dividing our assets. You have a much stronger constitution than me dear Amanda, you renovating star!!!
