Winter Beauty

Good morning! It has been absolutely freezing cold the past few days, but at the same time I can't help but marvel at the beauty of the winter weather here in Cleveland. While it's way colder than Cincinnati, I think Cleveland seasons are way prettier, especially the fall and winter. In fall, the trees' leaves turn vibrant reds, yellows, and oranges. In the Cincinnati area, the trees' leaves are mostly brownish. And in the winter, there isn't a lot of snow in Cincinnati so mostly what you see are the brown dead grass and the brown dead trees :/. Occasionally there is a snow storm that makes all the trees beautiful and the ground smooth and white, but it tends to melt after a week or two. Once the snow comes to Cleveland, it stays in Cleveland until the spring. The whiteness of it adds some color and brightness outside. The rivers also become partially frozen and icicles are commonly seen hanging from rocks on cliffs or houses. It's a really pretty scene. I tried to photograph this for you a few days ago. I didn't capture the beauty of it in the picture like it was in person, but maybe you can still see something of where I live :). Winter really can be beautiful, although I do wish it was a bit warmer haha.

Hugs <3
