I admit, I'm one of those really strange individuals who enjoy winter. And as of this very moment we are in the throws of enduring one of winters' best snowstorms. 14 - 16 inches close to the lake. It's the light fluffy kind - not so good for making snowballs or snowmen, but fantastic for cross country skiing and any type of sledding. Schools were closed for the day. Travel was a mess. But you know, there is some sort of connection that everybody seems to feel on a day like today. Like confirmation that indeed 'we are all in this together.' Strangers smile at each other even as the snow flakes sting their cheeks. People get out of their cars to push others who may have gotten stuck. That type of thing. And somehow with that in the air, and a fresh coat of fluffy white covering everything, for just a few hours everything looks a little better.
Have a great day. I'm going to go play in the snow!
