Pure as the driven slush

"I'm as pure as the driven slush." -Tallulah Bankhead

This morning's four inches of pristine snow has turned to slush. I waited until after it had stopped snowing before heading to market (last photo) only to be pelted with slush falling from the trees.

Very familiar with this kind of weather being in NE Ohio. Very nice pics, my favorite is the 2nd one from the top.

It was after an ice storm had coated the trees. The sun had been out for just a bit and the ice started melting so slowly that all the trees looked like they had rain falling underneath them!

A staple where I live.

But even with the slush, you've got some really nice photos.

I don't often have a need to use them. There hasn't been much snow here (Lancaster, PA) for the past six years.

Thanks!
