Drippy Icicles and Posts of the Week

Monday was sunny but cold. The icicles which formed from the previous day's snowfall were melting rapidly in the late morning sunshine. I saw this one while waiting for a bus and I noticed that it dripped about once every five seconds or so. I was determined to catch it in mid drip. That wasn't easy for me. I held my camera to my eye and focused up on the icicle.

About ten minutes and thirty shots later I finally captured a drop, though it came out pretty blurry. Still, after all those shots, I've deemed it blog-worthy.

And now, without further delay, here are the Posts of the Week. The icon below is yours for the taking if if your blog post is named as a Post of the Week - either as top post or as a runner up.

This week's POTW goes to..

Enough Fluff

Our walk continues from the previous post with a few simple quotes and photos below. I hope you enjoy them.

Snow flurries began to fall and they swirled around people's legs like house cats. It was magical, this snow globe world.
~ Sarah Addison Allen

I look out of this window and I think this is a cosmos, this is a huge creation, this is one small corner of it. The trees and birds and everything else and I'm part of it. I didn't ask to be put here, I've been lucky in finding myself here.
~ Morris West

A proud man is always looking down on things and people; and, of course, as long as you are looking down, you cannot see something that is above you.
~ C.S. Lewis

Advice is like snow - the softer it falls, the longer it dwells upon, and the deeper in sinks into the mind.
~ Samuel Taylor Coleridge

I wonder if the snow loves the trees and fields, that it kisses them so gently? And then it covers them up snug, you know, with a white quilt; and perhaps it says "Go to sleep, darlings, till the summer comes again."
~ Lewis Carroll

Most of the snow has since melted. We've been enjoying milder, albeit rainy weather this weekend. Maybe Spring will soon come calling. Thanks for joining me.
