Jane's Corner View this week is "White." Her other participants are listed there too, please take a moment to check them out and enjoy their interpretations of "White."
Went away for a week in December and returned to a buried Saturn station wagon!
The world's longest icicle
Historic New England cemetery in winter
Old barn window, circa 1800
Bellweather, lol. Notice the snow plastered on one side of the bell. Wind was fierce.
The morning after the storm, ice and snow...and white sun
All of the above taken in Maine, the
whitest state in the nation with 95% Caucasian populace.

LOL on the map! I remember how much you disliked shoveling out your car..... although it was fun to watch you in the big fur coat and boots......
these shots are wonderful! but i did just get a chill... besos!
Love it! Love the snow......we hardly ever see any here so it's nice to see lots of photos!
wow that is a lot of snow.
I love the flag in the window picture.
That looks like the coldest state in your nation to me, is it?
Thanks ladies! Francesca, the town of Caribou, Maine is in the top 10 coldest cities in the us, but actually Maine's average annual temp is 42 F (5.5C). There are places that are bitter cold like International Falls Minnesota and Barrow Alaska. The irony is, the colder it is the less likely it will snow. The drier colder air is not conducive to snow, which needs humid waterlogged air and that occurs at warmer temps.
Snow such as this, though, is a total headache to live in, with all the plowing, and cost and danger and mail can't be delivered unless your mailbox is shoveled out and disruption...I hate snow.
Brrrr! We just started winter-proofing our house this week and are supposed to get our first frost tonight. Hard to believe that it was just in the mid 70's this past weekend. The cold always has a way of sneaking up on us here! You think we would be used to winter's tricks by now. :)
I love the snow right after it falls and before everyone goes tromping and driving through it.. so soft and beautiful!
Utah is the whitest state.
Anonymous, Utah may well be in your opinion, but the Bangor Daily News (link in post) begs to differ with you...as does the NY Times...

I am glad we do not get that kind of snow here in Georgia.
oh wow, you're already in serious winter mood! :)
Hah! The NE cemetery is really a lovely shot. The weather looks like it'd be perfect for hot cocoa!

Shoveling snow so you can get into your car? I hope you enjoyed some hot chocolate after you were done.
