A lot of people like snow. I find it to be an unnecessary freezing of water.
(Carl Reiner)

Well, except for one bonus shot taken right next to my front porch:

February 1st: The sleeping daylily holds fast to a branch in the dooryard garden, looking for all the world like a diamond ring on a finger of Mother Nature.
