Tracks in the Snow




 There is something special about tracks in the snow.  Obviously someone has traveled this way before.   It may be two legged or four.






                     




Some may be known.

Some  are not. 

(Possibly a Bunny?)







              


                                                                  


My favorite are those that travel side by side.   That means one was not alone.   There was company along the way.


Ever notice how the trek seems more pleasant when it is shared.   The hills don't seem quite so steep.  The wind's bite is not as harsh.   The sun shines brighter.

Life's journey is much sweeter when there is companionship.

A scripture comes to mind...

"Two are better than one, because they have a good return for their labor:  If either of them falls down, one can help the other up."    Ecclesiastes 4:9-10 (NIV).

                                                     
Thank you each and everyone for keeping me company as I make my tracks in the snow.   May I do the same for you.   God bless!

  11. I also love the tracks, and try to guess just who was there before me. I think I have spotted a fox here, and some long footed birds-the snow is so pretty now too. I loved this post, dear Debbie...
