What do you see from your window?

[Joelene9]

  Snow still covering most of the lawn in front, with more in the forecast tomorrow.  Kids playing out in the street.  Back window, snow on the lawn and garden, looking down on the rooftops of the 1960's ranch style homes with the white-capped Rockies on the horizon.

Trees outlined in christmas lights. It looks like someone was playing with a Lite Brite.

Kia Ora,

I'm surprised nobody's said "A concrete jungle!" or is this term no longer used ?

Many moons ago I did live in a place where when one looked out the window[any window] all one saw was a concrete jungle..Where I lived in London comes to mind...

A stretch of ground cover and bushes followed by a hill with grass and a big pine tree at the top.  Behind that is a row of bushes and the flatirons.

If I discount two brick walls 3 feet away, an electrical contractor, and a shed, I have a fine view of Mt Wellington over the rooves of North Hobart.  At the moment it is surrounded by clouds and the glare reflected is blinding.

I see the sky which is white with gray clouds. Trees with no leaves on them except a couple. The other apartments with a few cars out in the parking lot. An anorexic squirrel that looks like a rat with a bushy tail running up the side of the hill. A dumpster and a boy dribbling a basketball.

  10" of new snow on the ground today.  Everything's covered, overcast with flurries.

Heat shimmers from the paving. It's in the high 30C. I can see a tomato ripening on my plant. My asparagus has gone mad and has shot into six foot branches. Somehow I do not think they will taste too good.

Cindy, want to trade?  My view is covered by 15 inches of snow now.

Now how do you spell, no way!

I do not understand how people can pretend to like to live in cold places.

In some of the shopping malls traders were selling 'snow' to kiddies so they could throw a snowball at each other. That was quite inventive.

Mt Wellington silhouetted by the setting sun.

Your asparagus have bolted Cindy, bad luck.  That can happen when you get rain then sun.

[AbraCadabra]

The brick work of my barbecue's chimney, the skittles and balustrade of my upstairs balcony, the green leaves of a Chinese maple, Italian Cypress, and Brazilian Leopard Tree.

The stars are out and there is not a cloud in the sky which hasn't happened for a few months now. It is dark and eerie quiet, the calm before the storm, I am on Cyclone warning.

[LordKAT]

A train, and a bit of dead snow.

[MacKenzie]

  A snowman & snowoman holding hands me and my friends made yesterday! Oh and many snow angels through out the yard.

Lol. I was born in Texas, lived all over the south, and didn't live anywhere that got cold (though pacific NW isn't harsh) until recently. It's raining or overcast for half the year here, and I love it and I love the cold. When it snows I still get pretty excited.

My daughter was 7 when we moved here, and she doesn't really remember heat waves and drought. I think that's why she dislikes the rain and cold so much more than I do.

Another ripe tomato on my bush, I had one for breakfast it was the size of an apple, gently fried in butter on toast. Awesome

[Cindy]

It is the Jan 30, boiling hot, 39C

There is palm trying to release a frond. It used to live in a pot but I planted it and it has gone crazy, at least two foot this year.

A pair of pigeon doves are doing naughties. A swallow is catching bugs. More tomatoes ripening.

Mmm no snow

Happy New Year Everyone

Cindy

[Felix]

Lol at "doing naughties."

My daughter caught a bunch of worms and slugs yesterday, and today she decided she just wanted the worms. While scooping the slugs out of the jar, she announced "now they can all go have a mating party!"

I lol'd so hard.

[Cindy]

As long as she doesn't want to eat them!

My Sis in law is vegetarian and judges her choice of food on eyes. If it has eyes she doesn't eat it. Except for potatoes . I got a great recipe book, I love cooking, and it had a recipe for snails.

The first part was keep your lid on the pan in case your ingredients crawl out  . I sent it to her with a comment that snails don't have eyes and my next dinner party would include this dish

She of course came around and bashed me up (in a very loving way) we are very good friends.

Know what did she do with the worms?

You have checked the beds?
