My hubby and I took a drive to the lake yesterday. The roads were wet so it was a good day to travel. It was so lovely to see the trees covered with snow! A little cold by the lake as the wind was blowing so I took a quick photo while it was snowing:
The lake water is lowered in the winter so it always looks a bit strange to see so much shoreline. It would be a bit chilly for a beach fire today! 😉
We walked around near our lake place. It was so beautiful and peaceful!
We saw a few deer tracks and that was about it. And a little sunshine as we were leaving but mostly it felt really cold. Brrr!
So we stopped for a cup of coffee and hot cocoa to warm-up by a crackling fire at a local resort before heading home.
It was lovely to enjoy winter’s wonderland for a day and return to our warm home!
Enjoy your day! 🙂
Wonderful and beautiful. Sounds perfect! :))))

Hi Jill,
Nice to see your post of the Priest Lake winter wonderland. We want to visit there soon. Where did you park? How deep was the snow on Tom Low’s road? Is it plowed? 🙂 Thanks!
See you in a few months,
