After a long stretch of cloudy weather, it looks like we are finally going to get some clear-and-cold days. I love such weather because it showcases our beautiful snow. The scene of our driveway, above, shows how the snow turns to blue in the evening. It is often pink in the morning. And when the temperature is absolutely snappy, like what Christmas and Boxing Day are expected to be, the snow turns into fields of diamonds, sparkling so brilliantly you need to wear sunglasses.
Merry Christmas!
