Saturday was my birthday and my friend Kathy/WA and her hubby came down to Vancouver and picked me up for a SNOW day at Mt. Rainier. Not only did I get to see the snow piled up there and beautifully draped over the trees but I got to try my hand at using snow shoes. It was my first time and no practice when we went with a guide on a short trek. . . (I didn't do well.) I did manage to get a few photos. . .
What a birthday blessing to have friends who know how much I love snow and take me to it. this year. Yes, I know this has been a blessing in different ways several times on my blog already but this is a different slant this time.
For he saith to the snow, Be thou on the earth; . . . Proverbs 25:13 ...

My LEAST favorite Proverb! Snow is fun to play in, but not shovel. We are getting a foot of the stuff tonight/tomorrow!
Happy BYBS!
Well, blogger finally let me add three photos. . .
I love shoveling snow, hotdogman!
I wish we would get a foot of snow here. I would travel around by bus and on foot and shovel three people's drives (people older than me) and then make a snowman and then walk around town taking photos. I am still hoping for some real snow here, not just teases like we have had.
Paulie, you are a "character"! The pictures are just beautiful. I lived in Maine for a while and always wanted to try shoe shoes but never had a chance. Glad you had a nice day!
These are beautiful photos! Thoughtful friends and snow are a wonderful combination. That's a great blessing. I guess if the Eskimos have so many ways to name the white stuff there must be as many ways to consider it a blessing!
Well belated happy birthday! Friends make the otherwise cold weather really warm, isn't it?
Happy Belated Birthday to you! Sounds like you had a great time taking those beautiful pictures.
Wishing you a great week ahead.
First of all, you did fine!!! It was almost that we threw you to the wolves--drift wolves, I guess.
Second, hmmm. I think I have a picture just like that one.
We got home safe btw. It was fun, and we will have to do it again sometime.
Oh, Paulie--what beautiful pictures! That's what I'm pining for: a wonderful world of white!
Fantastic shots and a wonderful Birthday day.
I want snow!
Happy Birthday, Paulie! Friends are a blessing, especially if they come with snowshoes...LOL
A Belated Happy Birthday Blessing! Gorgeous photos, and Happy BYB Sunday!
2I want to see that kind of snow~the pictures are so beautiful! Friends are a wonderful blessing because they do know us! Happy birthday again!
...and there will be snow again here after a VERY warm January thaw...
I'm fine with snow, I'm NOT fine with humidity-less cold winter days.
Beautiful amazing photo!
