Walk around the lake
The snow is all gone. A few patches hide in the hollows behind trees, and on the north side of hills. Surprising when you do find it, like stumbling on a small furtive animal.
March Snow ~ Reprise
Flowering Quince
With power returned, proper attention can be paid to the material. Here are re-do’s of photos, and snips from those days with nothing to do but look and listen.
Better Day
One day after the big storm, all is well.
Power returned last night, but only after we had built a cozy nest by the fire. We camped out in the living room anyway.
Today the sun is out, the birds are singing, and all that white stuff is turning clear and dripping away.
Winter threw one last tantrum before slinking back to the north, it seems.
Snow Day
Been snowing since last night. Snowing still, and will for the rest of the day.
Power went out hours ago, so we’re staying close to the fire, reading books, taking pictures. Heating soup on the gas stove.
Lunch Stop: Wolftown
Wolftown Mercantile ~ Wolftown, Virginia
I live and work in a rural area. The views are awesome.
Lunch can be an adventure all its own.
First Snow
Snowfall on Cedars
Thursday, they predicted up to 7 inches of snow for the whole region. Instead, we got three solid days of cold rain, then finally about an inch of snow here, and nowhere else. Enough to make things look nice.
A south wind warmed things up again, and everything’s been dripping all day. Shirtsleeves and snow.
Moon Walking
I love what creative people do with technology.

The ultimate full moon shot. Dean Potter walks a highline at Cathedral Peak as the sun sets and the moon rises. Shot from over 1 mile away with a Canon 800mm and 2X.
