Perhaps it will be ...

... a white Christmas after all.
 


It was another lovely day for a walk on the trails, being caught in a snowfall just made it special.
Merry Eve of Christmas Eve ... May the joys of the season find you all.

Let It Snow, Let It Rain, Let It Rain

Life is unpredictable and so is the weather. I could not have predicted the beauty of the full moon rising as I made the commute home from work on Wednesday, or the sudden snow that covered the skim of ice on the creek leaving it cold and dreary looking during last weekend's hike.
November ended like a blast chiller and December began like spring. It hasn't stopped raining for two days. Today's temperature was 20 degrees warmer than Friday. The outdoor ice rink opened behind City Hall but I didn't go skating. I decided to reminisce about the week just past instead. On my way out today I saw one motorcyclist ... I admired him for his stamina, but I was glad I wasn't him today.
Unpredictably - this apple tree grew possibly, according to the sign, because of an apple core thrown out the window of a passing train.
