  1. Carrie Staples – United States – Author, illustrator of "The Yarn Animal Book", probably the only craft book with instructions for making such unique yarn animals as an orangutan, an ant eater, a llama and a star-nosed mole and "The Single Minded Prince, a fairy tale for all ages about a boy and a pirate captain who both misbehave. The books and a booklet series based on each different yarn craft topic covered in "The Yarn Animal Book" (pompoms and other really easy yarn crafts, knitting, crocheting, rya, needlepoint and embroidery), are available on Amazon and Kindle.

  2. pastpeter – Sometime Senior Scientist, sometime Senior Pastor, now senior citizen, happily retired and living once again on Long Island, New York – the place people always want to leave but always come back to. Our retirement years have taken Marian and me to mid-coast Maine (A Maine Winter), to the New Hampshire Lakes region (A New Hampshire Journal), and then back to Long Island, where we had spent the 17 “best years of our lives” (Past Pastoring). We loved the north country, but are so glad to be “Home” (Long Islanders).

    We should have known better.

  4. This is the time of year when the differences among regions become most pronounced, I think. It’s the pollen that’s flying down here, just as thick as your snow.

  5. Fat floating flakes here
    instead of the ones flying by
    in your (very fine ) photograph.

    We too should have known
    better. Still hopeful however!

  6. Love this picture! I’m not sure where you’re posting from, but where I live in Canada, we’ve got our fingers crossed that maybe, maybe spring is here to stay!

    1. Oh! Lucky you. Here in the northeast of the US late April would be early for Spring. And snow in May is not unusual. Winter is always a long and wild ride.
