Day 339 - a Year by the Sea

Bedraggled and forlorn. Mind you, I don’t mind the cold but sometimes it can feel like it’s beating on an already defeated victim. Bright yellow and still green, this plant is certainly plucky with its roots in ice and an air temperature of 18 degrees F. It is most likely frozen in place and will soon dry out. Winter is inevitable but sometimes not everyone gets the message. Right now it’s obvious that the shortest day of the year is at hand and with it, the official start of winter. I’m all layered up and this little plant still makes me shiver.

Ciao!
