The Shimmering Joys of Northern Climes

We awoke this Friday morning to a breathtaking sight: an overnight fog had frosted every weed, bush, vine, and tree with white sparkle. The world beyond our windows glistened breathtakingly and become more ravishing as the sun rose in the clear, blue sky. A small wind began blowing the sparkle around in the air. Then, as if to give us a lesson in the extreme fragility of such spectacular beauty, it  was gone. Leaving us with the lovely long blue shadows of a mid-winter morn on the bright, white snow. Anyone who slept in missed it!

 Eat your heart out, Sunbelt!!!

Keep a critical eye out for the beauty of the world.
