Winter ~




There is a privacy about it which no other season gives you.... In spring, summer and fall people sort of have an open season on each other; only in the winter, in the country, can you have longer, quiet stretches when you can savor belonging to yourself.

  1. I know, Angela! I love that about winter. We all nest inside and have alone time, plus not so much sneezing--as long as I don't get a real tree!

  2. I like that, Angela. There is a quiet hush about the season -- especially right after a snowfall (like we are expecting here in Colorado in the next week).
