btw, you probably know this but just in case: stay away from trees when it snows. the weight of the snow can cause branches to suddenly snap. we've had deaths in parks this way.
Yes, they write about that in the newspaper when it is dangerous. We have a wood nearby the city where it is great to have a winter walk, but when there is too much snow on the branches then the way get closed down.
But the weirdest death goes to the guy whose hand was frozen to the handle at a stairway (apparently he wasn't wearing gloves), and apparently he could not free himself, and since it was very cold that night he froze to death. Isn't that awful? :(
It looks lovely! I adore snow so long as I don't have to drive in it. *g* If I have to be cold, it should at least be pretty when I look out the window.
And I love the tortoise. I know you were going for camel but when I saw it I immediately said TORTOISE!
Well of course once I realized that it never would become a camel I changed it ;) (question: Is there a difference in the meaning of the words "turtle" and "tortoise"?)
I agree that it looks much more prettier from inside. Did you also see the pictures I posted yestrday? They are from 2010, even more snow back then.
1) Holy cow that is a lot of snow for Dresden. Admittedly, here in Minnesota, we have had several snows already this winter that have dropped at least 7 inches (approx. 18cm).
2) I LOVE your snow turtle. Very creative!
3) Turtles and tortoises are both reptiles. Turtles spend most of their life in the water and tortoises spend their life on land. They have adaptations for their respective lives. This is really the only difference that I know between the two.
The snow pictures are neat! Looks like here, hehe.
I really like the turtle! I've been meaning to do something fun like that for a while now, but I never get around to it! Maybe I should do that sometime soon. :3
Thank you! It was still snowing at Easter. It has stopped doing so now but is still very cold and snow laying around. So that is why the weather is not getting better - it waits for you to get creative! Could you hurry up a bit, please? ;)
