The morning after the big snow storm -- 7 degrees Fahrenheit at 8 am. The birds were crowding at the feeders before sunrise. I stepped onto the porch to snap a few shots. Yes, I was barefoot.
The ice-coated trees turned silver as the sun rose behind them. I tried to get a few shots of sunlight glinting off the ice at the tips of the closest Eastern red cedar trees, but it did not work. I will head out later for a walk, a cardio workout of shoveling a foot of snow and tall drifts, and take a few more shots.
I'm seeing reports that this is among the heaviest of snowfalls in the past 100 years.
Crews are out clearing roads, but remember that beneath the snow lies a treacherous sheet of ice. Stay safe. Stay home. Build a snowman/woman/monster. (Check out Calvin and Hobbes for ideas. 😄)
Enjoy the day. Do some cooking. Take a nap. Whatever you think you don't have time for, do it.
Me? I'll do yoga. Do laundry, although I won't hang anything out on the line today. It will hang on drying racks near the fire. The purge will continue. Meditation, and who knows what else.
Take a Snow Day. You deserve it.
