A December to Remember - My 100th Post!!

Vista Magic...First snowfall.
Ballerina Poised for Winter Performance...Below, the Winding Road Home.
Last of Autumn, Hangin' On Flowers Still Blooming and Fruit Hanging on the Vine ...taken just days ago. Below, Figs Flavorless...they resent being planted on an east facing slope, at over 2000' elevation. The summer figs are a small crop, but are much more dependable than the fall figs, which as you can see, even in the best of Octobers miss their mark. Sigh
Last of the Peppers...and the Real Pepper!
Beautiful Evening Sky with Autumn Colors Wearing Winter Gear...
Nativity...
Lights in the Dark of Winter...Below, Spotlight Eden Prairie Mn: View from Home. Sigh - of bliss.
Long Shadows in the Dark of Winter.... I am (so) happy to be back on the blog. A computer glitch has kept me off my main PC for over 3 weeks. So, I taught my back-up PC all about Nikon tonight, and like magic, I am back online. December has been very warm (no hard frost ...yet.) Then, our first snows arrived Sunday, and temps are forecast in the mid-20's for this week! We have over 6" of snow here on the hill. It has been a blast, and very beautiful. More later. xxoo Jj

Happy 100th! The snow is beautiful and fun to photograph though not to drive in. I love where I live but sometimes I wouldn't mind your view!

Please tell the ballerina she looks lovely.
