When I first moved to Leicestershire in the mid 70s we would have significant snow falls every year and normally we would have been stuck in our village for several days until the roads had been cleared. Then from around 1990 onwards there was no significant snow until Sunday this week.
It started about 10.00am and by lunchtime we had around 22cm of new snow. Monday morning the temperature around -5c everywhere looked beautiful. Well gardening was out of the question however I thought I would share some magical photographs taken in the garden.

It is beginning to thaw now (Tuesday)!
I hope you enjoyed a look around the garden under snow.
Beautiful Snowfall!

Snow and blue sky are a lovely combination. The winter trees are wonderful in the snow.
