23 and SNOWY. We have gotten SO MUCH SNOW over the past few days. Dropped about 7 inches on us. Super beautiful, but because it's the first snowfall of the year, people drive like...well, you know whats.

We bought some margaritas to remind us of Mexico.
It really isn't working.

If I'd really wanted a warming bit of Mexico, I would've popped open the bottle of Esperanto Añejo -

It's in the high 20s or low 30s right now, and it's snowing ever so slightly. When I first moved to Knoxville, I was told that it never snows here, but this will be the second winter that we've received snow, and this one's shaping up to be even whiter than the last.

Well.. the snow keeps coming ... and then melting. Early this morning the ground was bare again with only a light covering in the most shaded parts of the woods. We'll see if this one stays. It's a big light reflector for me so it means a revisit to the Aspen stand with those low warm rays from the sun. Of course there has to be sun too. It's a been a while since sun. That's the trick we need sun plus snow that is not too deep. So far any sun or rain and the snow has been melted. It's tough when one's props melt away.Skip wrote:It must be beautiful this time of year, all that snow...Rusty wrote:Oh we're having a heat wave, a tropical heat wave.

You're out of the woods
You're out of the dark
You're out of the night
Step into the sun
Step into the light
