WW: Wagamons Pond After Winter Snow Storm

Frozen Pond Picture

"Beauty, like ice, our footing does betray; Who can tread sure on the smooth, slippery way: Pleased with the surface, we glide swiftly on, And see the dangers that we cannot shun."
- John Dryden

The temperature in southern Delaware usually doesn't stay below freezing long enough for big puddles to freeze, let alone large bodies of water. Although I'm not fond of frigid weather, the effects can be stunning, such as snow sitting upon Wagamons Pond in Milton during a winter sunset.

    Sadly, it's a familiar site for me. It;s been super cold in MA this year.

    It's definitely a stunning sight but yeah, I'm with you when it comes to cold (ie. below-freezing) temperatures.

    Love the quote! And your photo is wonderful. Great back-lighting with hints of pink. I actually want to be there and I don't like the cold.

    I'm a day behind. We got some of that white stuff on Tuesday. DH stayed home yesterday because of the icy, snow covered roads in our neighborhood. I wish I could have gotten outdoors early yesterday morning to photograph the snow, but it was all of 1°. I didn't feel brave enough to venture outside, but instead stayed in bed till 10am. lol This morning is wickedly cold, too. I just love your WW photo, though. This must have been awesome to see up close and personal through the lens. I would like an opportunity like this...someday! Happy WW! ;)

Giveaway: Clear Quartz Dagger Earrings by WireQueen

EDIT: Giveaway is officially over! Congratulations to the randomly chosen 108th commenter, Andalene! Accessorize an outfit and rejuvenate your spirit at the same time! Michelle of WireQueen is bequeathing a beautiful pair of clear quartz earrings to one of my readers. The design is named "Midwife Healer" in honor of the midwife that delivered her second daughter. The four sided dagger beads are different lengths and embraced by sterling silver wrap with surgical steel earwires. She has already cleared the crystals, but if you ever need to recharge or remove unwanted energy, simply place in a window that is beaming with sunlight. Michelle believes that the Creator gave to all things a purpose, including gemstones. She covers as little of the "face" of the stone as possible, but still secures it safely in its setting. She has customers who are still wearing creations that are over 10 years old! She's been selling jewelry offline for years, but only recently began...

Rica Jewels will email you within 24 hours with instructions on how to claim your prize. The winds of March are making me wonder why I haven't learned to properly braid my hair yet. Not only would my tresses get less tangled, but there are so many pretty patterns available online now. The only braid style I ever mastered was how to make friendship bracelets back in the 1980s. Daniela of Rica Jewels offers a much more intricate braided bracelet called the Kusma Bracelet. The mixed metal bracelet is made with silver, bronze and copper. The beautiful bracelet is 7" long and 0.4" width and can be bent gently on the edges to better fit the winner's wrist. Yes, you read that right.
