Virginia’s Prolonged Winter

Unlike many, I actually LOVE Winter! I do want to add that I have a well insulated home, a car with heat, a healthy body, and I work indoors. There are many who are not so fortunate, and it’s especially difficult on the days where temperatures have been consistently below 15 degrees Fahrenheit (not typical for Southwest Virginia).

I love a good snow, especially in these days of climate change when, at least here in Virginia, we don’t see the snow as in the past. It’s all about the beauty, the peace, the quiet, AND the time with friends.

And finally, sitting in my comfy chair while watching the snow fall

Happy, Happy Me!

December Rain

This photo was actually taken last December while I was at a dead stop on the interstate during an ice storm.  There were no complaints from me that day, though.  I had heat, water, snacks, my blackberry, my camera, and no pressing business.   It wasn’t a bad way to spend a few hours.

We’re expecting similar weather later this weekend.

Stay warm and dry, my friends.
