Winter Car Boot Picnic

Hello everyone,

I hope you had a wonderful weekend.

It was a lovely one here with fresh

snow and some sunshine.

I wanted to do a winter picnic photo shoot

for you so I gathered up my favorite

winter plaid picnic stuff and off we

went.

We found a beautiful scenic road.

Now, we don't have a pretty truck or even

a pretty car but I did my best to

capture some winter beauty.

Some gingerbread cakes and hot tea

were just the thing for a winter picnic.

Well, that was fun and I have a few other

photos hoots I would like to do soon so

I will be back and I hope you will be too!

Take care, 

Carolyn

All Around the Town

Hello everyone,

I mentioned that we had a snow day this

week and we went to town (Charlottetown)

for a walk around the town.

I love how pretty everything looks with some

fluffy white snow.

Great George St. is always a favorite to

take photos of winter or summer.

I love the frost on the tree in front of the Inn

Colorful homes always catch my eye but

especially in winter .

I love the heritage homes in this area

So pretty!

Well, these were just some of my favorites of the day.

Yesterday, was a beautiful mainly sunny day here

so we took a country drive this time so I will

share those photos with you later.

Thank you for coming along with me.

Take care,

Carolyn

The Beauty of Winter

Hello everyone,

I hope your week is going well.

Here,on P.E.I we are having a

milder winter with very little

snow but that can change very

quickly. Since we don't have

snow right now I am looking

back at previous winters.

a collection of plaids/tartans.

A cozy winter tea

Lots of clean white snow

Our house on a snowy winter day

I always enjoy looking out the

window and seeing our

Boathouse with snow

all around.

Another outdoor winter tea.

More cozy winter shots

Although we lost a lot of trees here

during Fiona thankfully many

such as these are still standing.

I enjoy skating on our pond

in winter when we have ice

but not too much snow.

Oddly enough, yesterday our

pond had thawed again but

froze lightly overnight. It has

never been open water in January

before.

Much as I enjoy a walk in winter,

I love to come back in and

enjoy my tea by the fire.

How is your winter going so far?

Thank you for the visit,

Carolyn

A White Tea

Hello everyone,

I hope your week is going well.

Although it is raining here today

we did have some snow last week

for a day or two.

Now let's unwind with a hot cup of

tea. Can you see the snow out the

window?

I enjoyed having my tea by the

bay window so I could enjoy

the snowy scene out the

window.

I added some greenery from

the garden here and there

throughout our home for

that cozy wintry look.

I love this teapot that I

bought at Winner's several

years ago so I am using

it today.

The teacup is Eternity by

Skye McGhie.

I changed out the curtains for

the winter season to ones that

I had made several years ago.

I added some flowers to brighten

the day.

My tea tray is ready for another

day.

I am having friends for tea this

afternoon so I am looking

forward to a fireside tea

and a chat....so nice to

catch up with them again.

Red Plaid Winter Hammock

Sunday Blessings,

It is a snowy wintry day here as another

winter system passes over the Island.

It was still nice out for a walk earlier

in the day and when I came back

I thought it was another pretty day

for another hammock photo shoot~

this time using a red plaid theme.

I think when the snow stops later today

those old snowshoes might be fun to use.

A plaid thermos and an enamelware mug

with hand knit mitts should warm things up.

This old hammock has been here for years

and the hooks have actually grown into the

tree, so it is now permanent!

                                          Well, it is time for me to warm up
                                                   by the fire with my hot cup of tea.

                                                           Hope you are having a relaxing Sunday!

                                                                                                 Carolyn

The Magic of Winter

            Hello everyone,

We have been enjoying pretty winter

days here so I snapped a few photos

to enjoy in summer when I am longing

for snow ha!ha!

I am a summer person but I do enjoy

the beauty of winter too.

first I took a few shots around

our home and garden.

Gently falling snowflakes

           We enjoyed a  winter drive in the country .

       A winter walk at Greenwich National Park is

a lovely way to spend a morning.

Hope you are enjoying your week!
