It rains a lot in Georgia and there is a tendency to complain about it. To which I reply, "At least we do not have to shovel it."
The northeast is knocking on the door of setting all-time records for snow fall. The ice that we are experiencing has its own set of issues, but it does go away quickly; sometimes. Snow...it last all Winter. Bah, Humbug!
The first two pictures are of a birch tree. The last two pictures are of a tree in our back yard. You are able to see the difference that ice makes when it coats trees. In a stretch of less than one mile on Georgia Route 20, there were at least 10 trees and or large tree limbs that had to be cleared from the road. We have a large limb, from our neighbor's pine tree, laying in our back year.
On the bright side... there is definitely beauty in snow and ice. We just have to look for it beyond the immediate.
