February Snowfall

On Wednesday night and Thursday morning we got several inches of heavy snow here in Central PA. It even caused Penn State to open that late. It was really pretty on the trees so I took advantage of my extra time on Wednesday to take a few pictures on my walk in to work .... I find the snow so pretty when it is falling and undisturbed  -- I'm sharing a few of my favorites 

This is just an overall scene to show how much snow was clinging to the trees. 

A covered pine tree -- to me always a pretty site 

The snow was pretty heavy -- it coated the branches and hung over the fence 

One of the streets near my apartment looking really pretty in the snow 

More trees in the snow -- and again undisturbed-- love it 

And another of the local streets -- so pretty and peaceful and even some blue sky ...

The blue sky above the snowy branches -- such a beautiful combination 

A stone wall and fence combination -- there was a little snow falling when I took this and I love how the snow seemed to drip down the stone wall 

A bunch of trees in the field.. you can see how heavy the snow was... 

And I love to play with reflections -- this tree was so pretty by itself but I loved seeing the branches in the window next to it 

We have so many pretty places on campus -- I loved this field with the row of trees and house peaking through 

This shows that not many people were moving around on campus ... the way the snow was piled on the seats and wheels of the bikes caught my eye 

One of the bigger fields on campus -- taken with the zoom -- so pretty 

The snow was really coming down ... 

This tree was so pretty I just had to get a picture 

A wide shot of the street -- I was drawn to the trees on the left and the simple snow covered sidewalk 

The piles of snow on the branches was beautiful 

This made me feel like I was in the forest -- even though its on the edge of campus 

A little bit of everything -- pretty trees and a bench -- a small cottage and then the industrial stack 

The IST overpass -- again taken from a distance so you can see all the pretty snow covered hedges along the street 

One of the sidewalks in the middle of campus -- its always so pretty here 

And I wanted to get the lion shrine in the snow -- it usually does not stay snow covered for long and I thought it was so pretty peeking through the snow covered branches 

And a close up of the lion with snow on his nose 

Another pretty  place on campus ... 

And  another close up of the snow covered branches .... 

I hope you have enjoyed this peek into the snow covered campus. I love walking around and taking pictures of all the pretty spots we have. I also took more pictures of the snow and the moon last night so will be doing another post soon. Thanks as always for sharing my pictures with me
