Look Carefully

Can you see that white stuff on the grass? Yup, on our last day in the Boston area it snowed! We spent the morning cozied up by our friend's fireplace, eating bagels and lox, drinking good strong coffee, reading the NY Times, listening to classical music and watching the thick wet flakes fall gently through the air. Paradise! Except for worrying a bit about getting to the airport and actually being able to fly home. Really, the snow didn't stay on the ground very long. Enough so that I ran out for a minute to make a slushy snowball, and enough to accumulate on the windshield of our rented car. And it was hellacold.

And here we are now at home, nearly midnight. Good night to all.
