Caution!





Use one of the other doors.











Snow from the roof is coming down.
Going, Going!




And down in one big loud crash. 





Only a little snow left today.




Still plenty of snow out in the fields.








I can tell that the days are getting longer.  
 Our chickens laid 10 eggs yesterday!





And my greenhouse is coming alive. 

Have a great week my dear 
Blogging Friends.

Gina

    And I know I've said it before, but your landscape and views are quite stunning. Glad to see you're having some sunshine - it all looks perfectly beautiful.

  8. Gina, your blog is stunning. Seeing your eggs makes me feel guilty I have not collected mine in a few days. I am going to follow you and come back and spend some more time visiting your beautiful blog and checking out your beautiful ceramics. God Bless and keep warm. Spring is coming. Visiting from Met Monday. Love, Wanda

  9. Dear Karen, That snow came crashing down only a few minutes after I took the picture. Glad to see it gone and to see most of the snow disappearing. Have a wonderful week and thank you for your visit. It is so appreciated,

  10. Gina, this post really does show the variety of your surroundings. That snowy overhang made a wonderful photo op, but I know you must have also been relieved to have seen it succumb to sun and gravity. Your vista is amazing...all that open space must be exhilarating and inspiring, too. And then there are the eggs, really fresh eggs! And those flowers celebrating spring early in the greenhouse...the colors are wonderful, and are bound to find their way into your painting.

    Thank you so much for sharing all this beauty with us. xo

    1. Dear Frances, I can see that Spring is possible. For a while it seemed that winter was going to be here forever. I do enjoy my greenhouse. It feels good to work in there while the sun traps the heat inside. Thank you for your visit. ox, Gina

  12. All that snow just hanging there elicits a "Yikes" from me, but I would say that your roof is at the perfect pitch — a self-cleaning one!

    1. Dear Mark, You're right...a flat roof just wouldn't do around here. We just have to be careful and watch what's going on above us.

  13. Hi Gina! I love the house and... snow makes everything look pretty, though... this year we have had too much of it! There is snow on the ground, outside my house and the sky is grey. I brought in the first daffodils: they were frozen, but they seem to be opening up.

    I am patiently waiting for Spring, but I know I might have to wait until we go to Italy!

    CIAO! Thank you for the lovely pictures!

    1. Dear Anna, At least you already have daffodils...nothing showing here but the snow is melting. You lucky girl, Spring in Italy! I can never decide if it should be Spring or Fall when we visit Italy. Our next trip is planned for December. ox, Gina

  14. Dear Gina - it must have been good to see the snow come down and to know that the better weather will soon be on its way with the "melt". It is interesting the way the snow has taken on the contours of the tiles, I expect it is because it has been up there for so long - probably frozen into shape.
    Love your first image of the beautiful red nasturtium.

    1. Dear Rosemary, Yes, the snow stayed on our roofs for a good while. That is actually a good thing...that means that our house is well insulated.
      Nasturtiums have become one of my favorite flowers. They are good and willing models and provide me with blooms all winter and also the rest of the yearin my garden. ox, Gina

  15. Hello Gina!
    How wonderful that the thaw has begun.....spring is just around the corner, for sure! Here in Michigan, flower buds are peeking through the earth, and the thaw is continuing. Expectations are definitely high! Your flowers look lovely and I'm sure they'll be joined by their outside cousins very soon.
    Warm regards,
    Erika

  17. What a great big pile of snow that fell of the roof there Gina.
    I can see the snow, still on the far off distant mountains.
    I do hope we can see some spring coming soon. Its been so cold here.
