This was Saltaire early one morning last week. It's very unusual for us to get snow as late as April, when the trees are greening up. We had a sprinkling even in the valley, but the heavier fall up on Hope Hill took a few days to melt away. It looked quite pretty behind the mill. Not quite Switzerland but still pretty.
Still snow....brrrr but pretty. We are up on the ranges for a few days and it is freezing cold tonight after the warmth of Brisbane but not snowing.
ReplyDeleteWhoops , I'm using Bill's laptop while we are away and forgot to sign out so Wilbo 43 is really me, diane b from Brisbane.
ReplyDeleteIn 1975 we moved into our house in Waterloo on a 2nd April and ... it snowed ! I will never forget that !
ReplyDeleteAnd that rather smart playground in the foreground!
ReplyDeleteThe fact that it is unusual makes the view even more beautiful than Switzerland!:o)
ReplyDeleteMother Nature has quite a sense of humor, doesn't she?
ReplyDeleteI was born in 1933 at Malham, on April 24th. It snowed.
ReplyDeleteThe first thing my mother saw that morning was 2 inches of snow on the blossoming Pear tree. Thats why I was called Peter
