Winter Wonderland


Welcome to our winter wonderland  -  Cedar Rapids style
I had to share these images taken by my friend JoAnne Pruitt. 
This summer we were out taking pictures of flowers. 
This winter we've had plenty of opportunities for snow and ice pictures.

There are dozens of wild turkies around town. 
We've seen more than a dozen at a time on the east side of town.  They are truly amazing to watch.

Turkey strut - nuff said.

The last couple days we've had high humidy and little winds.  Apparently this combination is what produces "hoar frost".  I've heard of it before, but never really seen it.  More close ups coming later.  Enjoy!
