SNOW.............................. :-))))))

.
I finally got some snow!!!
.
It began last night...
.
And it is still continuing today...

Ooops, it stopped.  Just as well.  Don't need a lot.  :-)
.
(I've used this quote before,
but use it again,
because it fits.)
.
"Out of the cloud-folds
of her garments shaken...
Silent, and soft, and slow
Descends the snow."
-Henry Wadsworth Longfellow

Would you know, please...........?

The painting in the picture above....
.
It is a poster, from a French Museum...
.
Would anyone know the name of the painting?
.
Or how to go about finding out, the name of that painting?
.
Without a name, or the name of the painter, it is difficult to go about tracking down a particular picture.

sigh....

No snow........ :-(

No snow.
.
I think it's time to give up on any real snow this winter.
I don't miss having to be shoveled out.  Or walking or driving in ice/snow.  So what am I complaining about???
.
I miss the pristine beauty of snow.  I miss watching it snow, while inside my home.  I miss how snow fall, makes inside seem even more snug and warm and cozy and inviting.  Like a warm blanket around me.
.
I miss those things, about a normal winter, of snow.
.
And it is too late now, to expect any real snow...  So, yes...  I am sad.  About this.  About missing a real northern winter.
.
While apologizing to those who have been deluged with snow...   I still post this entry.   :-)
