Our house

is a very, very, very fine house with our version of "How do you know it's winter?"; and watching the snow.




And some much less cozy photos from a triple decker that burnt shortly after Christmas, and of a local convenience store a couple blocks away that was blazing yesterday. There but for the grace of God.

I love the purple-blue shadows on the snow & the frost Ma Nature makes. Remember you can click on the pictures to see bigger versions.

Big hug. JR
