    Ive never seen snow so this is like a fairy tale! So gorgeous!

  • dinghysailor1 replied

    Thanks sky and I know you’ll love it when you do!! – it’s great fun and absolutely exhilarating and beautiful when the sun shines .. the snow in this pic here is just left overs – not the magical fresh fall which sticks to every twig… but it certainly added a lot to this view … thanks again !
    cheers
