And so Winter begins..in Western Pa....

By
Real Estate Agent with Northwood Realty Services

Here it is our first " Winter Wonderland Snowfall "  that special snowy day when magic happens.  Layers of glistening flakes accumulate by inches on everything in sight.  It is like living inside one of those winter snow globes. it is truly a " Currier and Ives " moment.  Nothing dramatic...simply a pretty picture.

I just captured these photos of the horse pasture and woods across my driveway,such a tranquil scene.  Hope you enjoy..the photos of  our beginning winter season in Western Pa.

June - Absolutely stunning pictures!  Winter can be such a beautiful time of the year.  Time to break out the snowsuit and long underwear:)

June, beautiful ppictures and in a way I wish we had at least some snow in Texas. I know that winters can be long though because when my wife was in Anesthesia School in Minneapolis we froze our tails off...For months! Thanks for the great ppictures!

June, those pictures are gorgeous! I am NOT looking forward to the snow (still a southern CA girl at heart though I am now in Spokane, WA) but I LOVE the great pictures that the snow makes! I have found that I really enjoy the snowy scenery best when sitting near the fire, curled up with a good book and something warm to drink. OR when I go out in it because I choose to not because I HAVE to! I hope that you are able to stay inside!

Hi Everyone.  Winter in Pa is beautiful....just enough.. we may get a few really bad days due to the lake effects in locations close to us but fortunately it whizzes past us. I love palm trees, the ocean  and warm year around weather. Growing up we spent a lot of time at my grandmother's home in Florida..but  I really would miss the seasons.  Each season has a beauty all its own.

Russell, I think Minnesota gets hit a lot harder with cold and winter than we do.

Until about January as long as the roads are clear, the fireplace is a blazing, a hot cup of cocoa  and Christmas music is in the air....It's a fantasy world....after January...it's anticipation toward an early spring.  Thanks to all for your  comments  I wish I would have had more time to take more photos ...it was an exceptional day

Gee I am so not ready for winter, looks like that snow should have melted quickly.

Hi  Mary Thanks for  the visit. The really great thing about this first real snow fall is that it was wet snow that clung to everything except the roads.  It lasted for  a day ..but they said more was on the way this Friday.  I am trying to stay positive as a Realtor showing houses in the winter can be tricky.

Oh my, what beautiful pictures!   I just love the scenery that snow creates ~ but I hate driving in it!  We had a bit of snow today in Lancaster, and it was lovely.  I hope we have a white Christmas!
