 Sunset in Red Hook During the winter because of the lack of leaves on the trees, I really appreciate the  sunset in Red Hook NY even more.Each day the colors in the sky are a bit different, thus producing  a unique sunset.Cloud in the sky, a colorful sunset , snow on the ground and a barren tree together is a scene that can be entertaining until Spring arrive.                                                       -o-Looking for a home for sale in Red Hook?  You too could have a beautiful view.

Today it snowed most of the day.  It was fun watching  from my office window as the trees were coated with fluffy snow.The snowstorm finally came to an end in the late afternoon, and  I decided then to shovel the driveway,My timing was good because shortly after I started shoveling,  the sun was setting, the sky seem to be on fire, what a contrast to the fresh snow.I quickly grab the camera to record the day.

 Butterflies and flowersif you have a variety of flowers you will see many butterflies.  This summer  I saw a lot of these beautiful creatures.It takes patience to get a great shot.  I think they can tell someone is trying to invade their space so they usually fly away.Although it is Fall there are still some flowers so the butterflies keep coming until the hard frost. I will then have to wait until Spring to be awed by these creatures.

Bales of hayThis time of year going by the farms in Northern Dutchess it is not uncommon to come across a farm with fresh bales of  hay.What's next?  I am always curious to see what crop will replace the hay.  Most of the time at this particular farm it will be some type of vegetable, which will make it's way to a  New York City farm  market.One trend I have noticed over the last few years is the purchase of  a home plus acreage with farming on a small scale in mind.If this is your goal  call or text Jennifer at 845-594-9947 to help secure such a property.

Bearded Lady IrisI love this time of year because a variety of Irises are in bloom.   This one is called the bearded Lady.  Personally I think that is an odd name for a beautiful flower.These bearded flowers come  in a wide variety of colors and is rather easy to grow.

No this is not about getting a new listing, or a closing, but about the weather in my area.On Saturday I took a few shots of flowers in bloom.  I was happy to see the colors, a sign Spring was really here.  For  those homeowner who refuses to put their home on the market until the landscape is bursting with colors it appears that time was just around the corner. This row of forsythia was irresistible  I think I was getting ahead of myself because a few hours later this was what I saw.The winter was mild here, and it appears  it has decided to take over Spring to makeup for that.  Freezing weather and snow is the forecast for tomorrow.Will the weather system return to normal?
