Red Frost #WordlessWednesday

The last Wordless Wednesday of the year - Happy New Year to all those who follow my WW posts.  I thank you for visiting my blog, when there are so many others to choose from.

As my regular readers know, the area I live in experienced flooding over Christmas Day.  Fortunately our house escaped having water in the basement. One of my co workers, though, had to evacuate.  I'll have some pictures of a flooded park near our house on Friday.  Thank you to my readers who expressed concern.

And thank you for your expressions of sympathy over the death of my work friend.  One of my commenters, especially, got it exactly right.  In the midst of so much sadness this year, she pointed out "It's not a competition. We can all be sad together."

But we can also experience some joy.

I took this picture December 19, when it had gotten down overnight to 5 degrees F (-15C).

Winter is my least favorite season but at least it does have some special beauty.

Joining up with Sandee at Comedy Plus for 2020's last #WordlessWednesday.

    So sorry for all the bad things that have happened around you recently. We are winter lovers and wish the cold and snow would last longer but we have never seen red frost. Something new for us.

    I'm glad you didn't get flooded and have to leave your home. It's icy here this morning. So cold. What a beautiful shot. Magical.

    Absolutely beautiful photo, Alana! And I'm so sorry to hear about your troubles and the death of your friend. What a world we live in where so much beauty and so much ugliness/sadness can co-exist!
    Here's to only beauty and joy in the New Year!
