POTD: Pretend Winter

Maybe if we had a winter in Phoenix this would be what it looked like. I took this picture this morning after dropping my son off at school and the sun was out and blaring in my face.

But instead we have sunny winters! Which for me is great... I can only stand the snow for maybe a day. Hence why we travel up to Flagstaff for a one day snow trip. Haha. We can enjoy if for one day... but my husband and I know we'd never be able to live somewhere where it snows. The kids love it... and are still asking if we'll be seeing snow this winter. Who knows... maybe we'll make a day trip before the snow melts.

You wouldn't like it here in Chicago...too much snow and I hate it! I wish I lived somewhere with no snow! Great shot!

Here in Montreal, there are saying that we will get a foot of snow tomorrow... you wouldn't be happy here!! ;)

Michelle Duckworth said...

You're right I would hate it! LOL

Cari - Some friends of ours are from Chicago... and are moving back after living here for 5 years. They can't wait and want us to go with them. Seriously? I would die. I told them we'd visit them in the summer.

Great prepective!

Cool that you can drive for a day trip. I think my kids would like that. Then again, they whine when it's under 60.

Cool perspective, but what exactly is that? It looks like styrofoam peanuts. Was it suppose to be pretend snow?

Becky said...

Love the angle. We loved Flagstaff when we visited. Of course, I'm in Maine so I'm used to snow. :-D

So I'm guessing you didn't have frozen snot on your face when you took this? I'm jealous. Okay, now I'm over it. I love my snow!

Becca said...

Cool angle! I only like the snow for a little while, too. tfs

Cool shot! I love the texture!

Michelle Duckworth said...

Nope no frozen snot... it gets under 85 here and we're trying to wear sweaters. Seriously I couldn't live anywhere else!

Oh and it's not styrofoam peanuts... it's the rocks in between our yard and our neighbors yard.

Love those AZ front yards with the rocks! We used to live in Gilbert! We just got back from visiting family there, and the weather was wonderful! That's one thing I really miss about living there!

I love the desaturated processing on this photo. Really neat. I wish that we had sunny winters around here actually. I could really go for a 70 degree day right now.

You could have our snow!! Love the different coloring of this:)

Neat colors! I love snow, but I hate the cold. I say if it is going to be winter and ugly outside, bring on the snow!

We haven't had any snow this year. Boo!

I loved PHX when we lived there. BTW your place looks like our old neighborhood.
