What am I missing, Veta and Karen?? If something's funny, I need to know it!! :-) Ron, did your Uncle Donald have Navy aspirations? Or am wrong about the hat? I'll bet that picture was taken on Easter. Something about your mom has never changed..... Rosemary, I'll bet she was so proud of her boys!

The green stuff on the snake is called "duck weed" here. It's beautiful to see when it covers the water. I love looking at this thread each day to see the incredible photos you all take. Thanks for sharing them :)

Such pretty frost photos. That particular kind of frost is hoar frost. I googled it and found out there are three kinds of frost. Here's what it says about hoar frost. Hoar frost occurs when water vapour touches a very cold surface and freezes on it instantly. This can happen to the leaves and branches of plants, and will cover them with ice crystals that look like spiky fingers. It can also occur on other freezing surfaces such as soil and metal, and so can often be seen on cars. Hoar frost can occur at higher temperatures than rime frost  usually when the air temperature is around 0°C (32°F). However, the ground is usually much colder, and the air must be moist for the ice crystals to form. Compared to so many of you, our snows in northern Mississippi look more like a heavy frost than a snowfall.This is Anna and was taken the day after a snowfall a few weeks ago.

Casey, your house looks beautiful in the snow!! Nicole, looks like fun except I think my arms would get tired too quickly!!
