green week three :: confession

I've been kidding myself with this green week.  Cheating a bit, I'll admit.  I know that Emily probably doesn't have green week rules, but I have a hunch that with these photo-a-day challenges, you're supposed to take the pictures during the actual challenge.  The photos I've shared so far are from last week's trip to South Carolina.  A trip to celebrate the 22nd birthday of my daughter's paternal great-grandmother (leap year does funny things, doesn't it?).   

Well, the mini-vacation is over, and we're back to the North Shore of Lake Superior.  Mother nature will not don her frock of spring greenery in these parts for weeks.  Many long weeks.  Today she gave us snow.  Delicate fluffy snow that lingered as it fell, and piled about in a down-like manner.  Lots of white.  Not much green to be found, aside from the scarf around my neck and the needing-to-be-felted-again mittens.

I promise I'll share photos tomorrow and Friday that were taken on these days.  It will be good to seek the green here.  But, since I'm not ready to fully let go of those sun-filled days in Charleston, you'll find a bit more of them here.

You can keep posting the Charleston sun - you've earned it with all that snow and ice. Love those mittens!

Wishing we had snow and mittens out our way. Love the picture!

I'm on the shores of Lake Huron... wishing I was in South Carolina right now. Though I think we northerners really appreciate spring when it comes because winter up here is so long. But it is SO worth the wait, don't you think?
