A Winter Wonderland?

Driving back from the gym today I realized something interesting (to me anyhow). Snow is great. I’ve always been a fan of snow since back in the old days when we lived in the country. A good snow storm could knock out the power for days. It was annoying, but it was also a great family bonding experience since we didn’t have anything to do but entertain each other.

Snow is great, it frosts everything in white and covers up all the little imperfections. At first. But that second day after the snow is a whole different story. Nothing makes a landscape uglier than used snow. When the grass is poking through and it’s all gray and nasty from being driven through and walked on. Saturday morning was the beautiful part. We're well into the ugly stage now.

A good snow is the great equalizer. It makes everything beautiful, and everything ugly.
