Jack Frost Makes His Appearance

I woke this morning snug in a warm bed within a cold room - my favorite. It makes it hard to get up however, so I waited until I could see a pink sky peeking in my window. This was followed quickly by a happy sun and a bright blue sky.  The lawn, the bushes, and the trees all sparkled with a shiny coating of frost.  The thermometer read 22 degrees.  Brrr. 

Since this was the first heavy frost of the season I was motivated to get out with my camera.  It made me think of the many early morning sunrises with shimmering frost on the roadsides that I've enjoyed over the years.  I always wished I'd stop for pictures, but the work schedule called and I didn't.  Maybe this year I'll make the drive a few times solely for the pictures.

Here are a few beauties from this morning's backyard.
Asparagus
Redbud tree
