snowflakes
~
I woke on Saturday morning to the easy fall of snowflakes. A good day to write Christmas cards. Amazing how a frail curtain of flakes can create a personal, comforting space.

Hi. Yes, it was cold. We’ve been up and down in temperature. Today it is just at zero (C) and raining hard. I will worry all day about getting water in our basement and will be glad to see snow! Jane

Very little compared to where we used to live. And it doesn’t last when we do get it. It’s usually gone by the afternoon or the next day. We haven’t had so much as a flake yet.
