Sound Gardener

Continuing from yesterday's post , our second walk in Carkeek Park began around 2 pm, and the sun made an appearance... Snow on this particular tree was especially beautiful... Pipers Orchard, wind was causing a secondary snowstorm to fall from the trees... The crooked trees were still standing... A little snow certainly makes a city park look like pristine wilderness. Unfortunately, the cold weather is forecasted to continue, with more snow expected in the coming days.

After a very mild, sunny winter through the end of January, the weather fell apart in February, turning cold and snowy. Four to six inches fell overnight, and without much else to do, dogs and people took two walks in Carkeek Park. Around 10 am Saturday, starting the first walk under cloud cover...  Paul and Kona, walking ahead... Several trees were down across the path, and I doubt these trees are supposed to lean this much (walk quickly)... The snow may be depressing in the garden, but it is certainly beautiful in the park. I will post photos of our second walk in Carkeek tomorrow .
