Hang in there, dear Frances. Spring visits you before me :)
Thanks, Kiki. Time is a gift! I enjoyed reflecting on the beauty of a winter's day.
How kind, Linda, and thank you. We have been good friends for a long time :)
There you go, dear jodi, spring found you! Now back home, I'm off to gather fresh flowers to delight me.
Agree, Marnie! After the teasing warm spell, this cold snap seems extra cold.

Very little snow in my world this year..love your snow photos!
It has been a strange winter, Tatyana. We too are void of snow and must go north to see white wonders, which we did over the weekend. But ... then Sunday ... it rained :( prophy
Thanks Kylee. Am enjoying all the rainbow posts ... how do you gals do it all! I did follow you and your mother to the Martha Stewart show and throughout your guided tour of NY ... golden memories for you both! (P.S. Got my prophy today ... see ... :)
Indeed I remember, Rosey ... don't you love the tart burst of lemon flavor! Thanks :)
Anna, you're a dear and a huge inspiration to all of us. So happy to see you posting and visiting. I insist ... your purple cupcake MUST be framed!

Thank you, Donna. Indeed, Hubbard Lake is special. I have been going there since I was 4 ... our family has 4 homes/cottages there ... summer is reunion time for friends/family from across the US :) Winter is quiet and wonderful. We are blessed to have the equinox setting directly in front of our cottage :)
How sweet, Rose. You too have the gift of seeing beauty in each day :)
Lovely images, as usual, my partner in crime.
Enjoy your weekend, and take advantage of that glorious sun, as it becomes available in your part of the state!

Thanks, dear Sheila. I'm sorry about your friend but, no, I don't know him. Yes, the lake is large, almost 30 miles around ... and ... to know Hubbard Lake is to love it ... there is just somethin' about it that just sticks in your soul! For me, it's the solitude ... loons and bald eagles plus family/friends/relatives :) And, how are you faring this fine winter?
