This is How We Spent St. Patrick's Day 2014

I think I will let the pictures speak for themselves.

A very snowy deck and patio.  The poor boxwoods in the cedar planter are heavy laden with snow.  

And another view from my kitchen window.  The bamboo is also heavy with snow.

 

And finally this shot of the bamboo over the deck.  The leaves easily collect the heavy snow and the bamboo bends and sways, but never breaks.  I love my bamboo grove.  It is beautiful and quite calming to sit next to on the deck in nice weather and listen to it gently rustling.

So, there you have it.  We had hopefully our final snowfall of the year on Sunday night.  I enjoy all the seasons in different ways.  Some more than others.  I am ready for winter to leave us.
