Jack Frost

I've found that when it's particularly cold outside and I mention that fact on Facebook, my friends who live in warm climates will immediately start crowing that it's 80° at their house. The thing is, I like winter. I also like spring, summer and fall. I grew up in a country where the weather was the same day after day, month after month, year after year. I much prefer living in a place that has seasons, and if I happen to talk about cold weather on Facebook, it's not in a complaining way. It's supposed to be cold here in November! I do not particularly love very hot weather, but that's a topic for another day. 

Last Friday I drove in 15° F temperatures and snow to do some family portraits in Monument, a bedroom community north of Colorado Springs. Here's a shot of my clients' front yard. Pretty!
