They are very nice looking but some people can't tolerate wool clothes. I'm one of those. It makes me itchy unless I wear it over other clothes where it can't touch any part of my body.

Unfortunately wool can't tolerate me - I always manage to shrink it!

That's wonderful! Apparently snow catches sound, that's why they say it creates such a distinct silence, especially just after fresh snowfall. I'd say something that's special here is rain. I know some people may hate it but it's really special. The smell is beautiful and distinct, I believe it's called petrichor. When it rains it feels like time stands still and it's difficult to naturally track it. It also feels like the world is draped in a great calmness, or peacefulness. So it feels just like you described snow! (An old Afrikaans tradition is to eat pancakes on rainy days)Certain types of snow storms are lovely to me too if I don't have to go out and drive around in itIt's normal life for me but there's something about the air in certain types of snowfalls that will wake me up from a sound sleep. There's a peacefulness. The air is kind of balmy and it's so beautiful it's timeless. I enjoy just watching it and the goings on of the birds. Maybe kids playing and sledding in the daytime. Or if it's at nighttime many times there's moonlight and I'll open the curtains to watch the show.
Yes. When it's that type of snow it is just like that. There are certain rain showers like that too. One type that I have to stay out in has a certain feel to it. Like little drizzling drops. It's hard to describe the drops but it's really refreshing. I don't get to experience that type often but when it happens it's really special.

We call it motreën, directly translated moth rain. Is the type your talking about the almost fog like rain, with drops the size of a pin head? It's a weird feeling, it's raining but you barely feel it when it falls on youYes. When it's that type of snow it is just like that. There are certain rain showers like that too.

No these are little droplets that have a quick circling motion as they touch you. It may be called a little spring drizzle.That's the little drizzly feeling and the sun is shining at the same time. That's the only way I can describe it. It's really neat to get to feel it. You can definitely tell you're getting sprinkles but yes they too evaporate quickly.
There is a new member here trying to rehome their 2 year sulcata from NY. If you all know anyone interested let me know. They think it is a male, but not sure how they know that.
Good evening/afternoon all,
We've had quite a variety of weather today - hail, rain, very strong cold winds and even some sleet and snow - nothing that stuck though. Mother nature has thrown everything at us. I'm keeping my eyes out for eggs or chicks that may have been blown out of nests.
It's almost bedtime here, but I hope you're all having a good Thursday.

I'm starting to see the spring birdie war around here. It gets silly, all of them fighting for the nesting spot they want. But when it's all said and done they're all still here and multiplying
Good morning all, the weather is much calmer today and the sun is making an appearance between clouds (but it's still chilly!)
Lola is out and about and is daring to take a few steps outside.
The weed hunting season has started and I managed to find some nice juicy dandies and plantains yesterday, so he enjoyed tucking into those. I'm going to see if I can find a lot more today to keep him happy.
I hope you all have a good Friday and I'll see you later.

Good morning everyone, the trainer at the gym introduced weights to my workout yesterday. Though I am happy to finally lifting weights. I am extra sore today, it's funny how being sore from exercising. I can accept but pains from my accident will mess with my head and keep me in bed at times.
Almost heaven, Maryland dandelions - Spring 2022.

They are all great, but I would choose number 2 - I love her alert eyes peering through all that food - and it shows a bit of background too.

Mine are just starting to grow a bit. My favorite weather man said that when the underground warms up to 50° is when you see the new growth.
I like 1 and 2 but for different reasons. Number one has really great color and Mary's little smile. Also she looks so content in the sun. Number two doesn't put her in the sunshine as much but is just as cute with her funny little baby messy face.
A lot depends on the category that you are entering the photo into. Best Pet, Ugliest Face, Most Unique, etc. Id say photo 1 is the best overall with regard to color, sharpness, focus, & unique, but most will like No 2 with the mushy mouth look.
Good luck
