Wordless Wednesday - First Snowfall
An Old Cold Spot
My brother Mike emailed me this photo last night. He said this was a goodbye salute that he snapped today in his garage where this old freezer has been chugging away since 1988.

Happy WW

I forgot I'd been in the mid-Atlantic for seven years now and that global warming is bringing less and less snow each year to the northeast, it seems.
That is a great shot.
Gosh, it makes for a beautiful photograph!

Oh and the "gift" I made is meant for decoration. Some of my recipients have displayed them year round.
We had a few wet flurries on Thanksgiving Day, that's it so far!
Grace was so excited because she thought it would really snow!
I saw on a comment (Susie's blog I think) that you had been ill...hope that is behind you now! Feel better!
Hugs,
