Wonderful Whimsical Winter!!

I had a doctor's appointment yesterday in Western Springs (nothing serious, just routine) and I hate going to the dr. I love my doctor but she is too far away from my home. So, when I go there I always take the "scenic route" through many forest preserves. Yesterday the trip was sheer heaven!! Breathtaking beauty everywhere with all the clean, fresh snow lining every branch, from the biggest to the most delicate lacelike twigs!!! And me with no camera, as usual!! So anyway, I am GLAD I had to go the dr. because otherwise I would never have made that trip thru the forest preserves!!!
And today.....I do believe the angels are having a pillow fight!!! A very joyful pillow fight!! I want to join in and play!!! But off to Artist's Way I go---and I can't wait!!!

Wasn't it so beautiful? Perfect description - playful pillow fight up there. As much as we are wishing for spring, that was heavenly. And Suz - that is what i do too - talk to myself - like when i see a big hawk perched on a branch or a redwing swaying on the tip of a weed.
