Frosty Morning

The early morning sun turned the distant Douglas fir trees bright green.

But closer to home, everything was rimed with frost.  

If we can't have snow, a good hardy frost will do the trick.

It serves to turn most everything into a winter wonderland.

Even the blackberry vines.

I'm not sure that the deer enjoy a frosty morning.

Their hooves crunch in the cold grass. 

But they are fat and healthy with nice thick coats.

As we drove to my in-laws on Christmas Eve, we watched three does munching away happily on green grass! Now we had a big snowstorm. Still snowing actually.

Amazing shots! Love how you capture the frost! Our weather is much warmer than normal... When I woke today, it was already 66! They predict 79 today! No chances of frost or snow... Hugs!

I love how soft and fuzzy the frost looks!
And the deer are so sweet! They do look plump and happy!
