SO MUCH FOR BAD-MOUTHING the snow. Just like that, I wake up to a most lovely snowfall, the deepest of the season. It's the kind that inconveniences me not at all and everywhere I go there is excessive beauty.


The snow arrived during the wee hours of the morning. The plows tidied up the roads early. The husband cleaned off the porch and walkways. The sun came out.




I think how interesting it would be to have a bonfire in the meadow now.


And if we needed extra tables, perhaps we could borrow them from the store where I go for groceries. Interestingly enough, they have no customers at their little ice cream shop eating area.

I had one more errand...over to Fair View to collect a broken knob from a water faucet. Along the way, I collected these sights as well:






And at the bridge:




This would be a wonderful way to wrap up winter weather, I think. Darn that groundhog!
