Focus On: "It's a Wrap!"

The End of Winter (we hope!)

This week's photo prompt from Sally Russick and Focus on Life, is All Wrapped Up. Here are some of the definitions she gives us for "wrap:"
6. To envelop and obscure.
7. To surround or involve in a specified quality or atmosphere: The plan was wrapped in secrecy.
8. To engross.
9. To put on warm clothing. Usually used with up.
10. To conclude filming.

It's still winter on the calendar, and yes we got a winter storm yesterday and today. But at least where I live, it was a kinder gentler winter storm. Here are a few of my gardening accessories and plants waiting patiently for their wrappings to be removed....

6. To envelope and obscure

7, To surround or involve in a specified quality or atmosphere: The plan was wrapped in secrecy. 

8. To engross.
9. To put on warm clothing. Usually used with up.


10. To conclude filming.





Bye bye, winter. Hope to conclude filming you soon!

  3. Hi Beti,
    I feel for you, I'm sure if I lived in an area that got snow I would be so ready for it to be a wrap too! Beautiful photos of your snow wrapped garden.

  7. Oh your photos made me smile, especially that last one. I kinda want to open my front door and yell at the snow "ok, that's a wrap, be on your way!" but it'll be a while.

  16. Beautiful photos! I love the sight of snow--it brings me back to my childhood when we sometimes were stranded for days out in the country, no school, just pure fun in the snow. Of course these recent snows oversayed their welcome in my opinion, and I'm so glad to see the last of it going away.
