Textured Tuesday: Wilted


A week ago, the entire country was under a severe freeze warning.
Snow covered the landscape for miles and miles.
Later, the temperatures warmed into the 40s-50s, bringing 
rain showers. The blanket of snow is practically gone, 
leaving only mountain ranges of snow heaped  
at curbsides and in parking lots. Remnants of those
will remain until spring. As the snow cover 
receded, plants that had been buried and ruined
revealed new colors, accented by the sparkle
 of decorations made from icy crystals
of melted snow.
