I was beginning to think winter wouldn't come.

On Saturday afternoon, I was at the park taking photos of trees as references for some pieces that I'm currently doing.  The next morning, I awoke to the first snow storm of the year for Ohio.  It was so pretty, everything covered in white.  I can say that because I chose not to drive anywhere in it, so there was to be no cursing of the snow.  I think the house seems cozier when there's snow on the ground.  Although the sky is overcast, the dimmer winter light reflects off of the snow and brightens the house more than on days when it's just grey outside.
