This year we were pretty lucky in my area not to have such an early snow, unlike last year when we had snow on the ground since October 17th.  We didn’t really get much snow until mid-November and it’s been pretty icy ever since.  Add to that the fact that my car is rear wheel drive and driving can be pretty interesting.

But one of the only good things about winter is that winter in Saskatchewan is extraordinarily pretty.  We have all of the picturesque fields, the snow-covered hay bales, and most importantly of all, tons of hoarfrost.  Today I braved the cold so I could share some of the beautiful scenes with you guys:

I didn’t go to get any closeups because the snow is up to my knees in the fields (even though you can still see some of the quack grass and weeds poking up) and it is miserably cold.

So what are you guys up to this Sunday?  What’s the weather like where you are?
