Let's Snowshoe in the Winter Beauty

Hey there! I'm going to take you on a virtual snowshoeing trip today in beautiful Northwestern Pennsylvania! I went out around 12:30 today at my parent's farm with their dog Buddy. You've met Buddy the wonder dog before in previous posts. These are my Tubbs snowshoes, they're light weight and very comfortable to wear. I've had them for about 13 years now.
How cool is this shot? That's my bulky shadow (3 layers and a coat)! It's like the invisible snowshoer!
First we are going to head over the pasture to the woods.







Let's cut up the fence row.......

Don't these snow covered weeds look like flowers?


And here's Buddy wearing his winter coat!

Let's cross over this little stream........


Oh! Look up! The trees look frosted.


And I .....I took the path less traveled......
Ok, now we're heading back up to toward the barn.


Look! The sun came out and warmed things up to about 23 degrees! It actually felt warmer than that. I haven't seen the sun in more than a week.


Let's start to head home now.

Back up the front field to the house and water.....we were both pretty thirsty.
We made it! Buddy's tired.......me too!

This is a little milk house that's across from where I get my hair colored. I had to snap a pic.

This is what I made the other night. I guess you would call it crafting green because this little mitten box is made out of.............
a clementine orange crate!

I painted it with gesso then a coat of light ivory acrylic. Next, I collaged on cardstock and decorative papers. I used a paper punch for the snowflakes and buttons. Hope you all had great Saturday!
