The First Snow

We had our first smattering of snow and icy particles were still falling as I took this picture.

Now the  ornamental grasses come into their own own and will display beautifully for the winter months.

The Zebra Grass looked like this a month or so ago

And this morning.

Winter has crept in slowly around these parts .

Now that I am driving a small car I am not looking forward to testing it out on snowy--freezing rain days. My last car resembled  a mini tank and I always felt safe; sadly it got older than me and had to be pastured.

In the meantime I'm all for the pre-winter weather and  the beautiful look of the grass.
