"where does the white go when the snow melts?"

look at the lovely snow that accompanied us on our walk to the capitol to watch the tree lit!











my friend Ileana and me, just after we were handed a mint and an entreaty to make peace in Iraq by many women (and one man?) in sparkly hot pink outfits with peace signs. glitter, breath fresheners and world peace?...sign me up!




The first fall of snow is not only an event, it is a magical event. You go to bed in one kind of a world and wake up in another quite different, and if this is not enchantment then where is it to be found? ~J.B. Priestley
