S'no(w) Picnic

Don and I are discovering, what the Sherman Hollow native's warned us about.....the weather climate particular to living on this road and at this (1050) elevation, is MORE of whatever they are getting down below. We best qualify that to winter weather. Today, snow flurries in the town of Hinesburg gradually turned into accumulating snow the closer I came to Sherman Hollow. By the time I got to the top of our driveway, the snow was an inch deep and by the time I have posted this picture, it's at least two or more and still coming down hard.

Shelved

The empty nook is now filled with shelves, which are now filled with books. Our living room echos less, and seems, finally, 'finished'. How good it feels to empty out the boxes and line up the books, fill in with nick-knacks and what-nots, and rediscover stories that had been hidden in storage.

A Place for the Christmas Tree

One of the very important design features of a house is having a good spot for the Christmas Tree. The spot in our new house was under dispute, until the tree was bought and in the house, and the spot revealed itself to us. And it wasn't one of the places being argued over. PEACE reigns.
