Walking in a winter Wonderland~

Every year I post hoarfrost photos. 
This is a series Jon took today (Jan 26,  2014) up in the mountains at the lower place. . 









The simplicity of winter has a deep moral. The return of Nature, after such a career of splendor and prodigality, to habits so simple and austere, is not lost either upon the head or the heart. It is the philosopher coming back from the banquet and the wine to a cup of water and a crust of bread. ~John Burroughs, "The Snow-Walkers," 1866
