Winter's great for Christmas, bracing walks and sitting by the fire with a good book but I prefer Spring and Autumn. I really don't like cold weather and having to get up and out in the cold..
I, too, miss having a real winter, something we always had in Kansas City where I grew up. And yes, lights glimmering (perfect word) though snow-covered branches is reassuring.
we haven't had any cold yet here... seems a bit odd still and my brain still thinks it is october. obviously i am in some sort of denial regarding the holiday just around the corner. i think some frosty goodness would help.
I love snow! so odd that you all had some - both so early and at all!
speaking of snow, today diane rehm had mary chapin carpenter on and they were talking of the beauty of snow and played a few songs from mary's christmas album called "come darkness, come light" I'm putting it on my musical wish list! check it out.
and speaking of christmas music, how is your friend's project going?
I adore winter, its IS cosy and comforting for the soul... And I love the picture of the lights shining through the trees, you're lucky to have a home in such beautiful surroundings
Pretty pictures. I love the winter season, so comforting.

"Glinting" is a perfect word, too!
