Snow

Link: http://prairietree.net/winter/snow_slide.html

Friday's snow and dawn on Saturday have been a delight. For me it came at a time of freedom to simply enjoy the aesthetic experience. And I did.  I think the cats shared in it. They were more active and glued to the windows of whatever room I found myself. Of course the abundance of the birds could have prompted some of the interest.

I had been bemused and somewhat amused at all of the media coverage of the great snow storms in the north that preceded our dusting. But now I see it as a blessing and an affirmation that we humans, most of the time so determined to impose our will, can still pause in awe of the natural world.

Now most of it is gone from here but this is a link to a few of the pictures I took from my loft.  (Just put your mouse over the text and the link underline will appear. )  The slide show is a bit crude but I am only part way toward my winter project of developing facility with Flash Slideshows.
