snow beautiful

February 12, 2021

pink sky with snow

There have been so many times I have wished snow could be saved for a single day…that it would just snow on December 25th and no other day.  It’s just that snow can be so annoying.  All the cancellations, delays, shoveling…not to mention it occurs during cold temperatures!

Here, in Connecticut, we have had quite a bit of snow recently.

Now that so many people are working from home and distance learning is a regular thing, I don’t think the snow has as much a negative impact on everyone’s daily lives as in the past.  The term ‘snow day’ definitely must have a different meaning for all the children in school – lessons are just done remotely instead of in school.  How sad to miss a day of no school because of heavy snow!

This past week there was one day when the snow came down most of the day.  In the late afternoon I decided to venture outside and start some snow clearing.  The views of the fresh fallen snow were so beautiful, I decided to take a walk around to admire it.  Snow much fun!  These photos were taken on that walk – all with my phone – no filters.

It is times like these that I really appreciate the four seasons we have here in the East and could not imagine living anywhere else.

Thanks for stopping by!

Remember to take pleasure in simple things – like the beauty of a fresh fallen snow, Jackie
