Simple Pleasures, part 4

“The first fall of snow is not only an event, it is a magical event.”

I guess Andrew Sullivan (link) liked the above picture from my back deck too...


Simple Pleasures haiku:
first snowfall this year
brand new backyard for the dogs
romping and chasing

You folks were getting some real flakes. Nice! We've got about an inch or so on the ground and, up until about an hour ago, a continued light dusting coming down.

Meh - I long for a good, deep, fat-flake, Colorado snow ...

Couldn't agree with you more - would love a big, deep one (umm, what?) - snowfall, that is. I miss a lot of the Colorado weather: the big snowfalls, the thunder & lightning storms, the four actual seasons...
I love it out here, but there's a lot to like back there too...

I love the temperate nature of this region - the greens! Yow! - but man, Aspens in fall, mounds of crisp powder in winter, and, yeah, a deep rumbling thunder storm preceded by the strong smell of rain ...
