First Snow

This morning the first snow of the season is falling. It is so beautiful! We are getting the light, fluffy snow that seems to wrap the landscape in a soft blanket. Having grown up in Louisiana I missed out on snow in my youth, so I delight in seeing the flakes accumulate. Ironically, recent climate change has resulted in occassional snowfall back home. This particular snowfall began down south yesterday. What a joy to hear from family and friends share their wonder and excitement over the first snowfall of the season.
