Here in this
part of the eastern US, we're close enough to the nation's largest
concentration of year-'round hot air, that it's unusual to see snow so early in
December. But this morning we had just that – not enough to endanger even the
most foolish of drivers, but enough to beautifully enhance the
Advent/Christmastide ambiance.
So I stepped
out onto the deck, ignoring the baying mastiff next door, and was able to get a
shot or two toward a nice panorama… when the batteries gave out. Oh, well;
here's one of two photos – and you almost can
see that snow's falling.
Yes, those nice pines are just outside our
fence; there's a great linear park running for several blocks here, and almost
any season it's beautiful.

Heh-heh; so
have I. The formatting options WordPress offered seem to have evaporated, and I
can't set postings up the way I want to, so it's been easier of late to ignore
the impulse. But, yes, I've got lots to say, and wouldn't mind blowing the dust
off the soapbox. We'll see…
