It was snowing this morning, the first snow of the year. We watched it spiral lightly out of the dawn-blue overcast. It didn't seem to be sticking, but it was beautiful, and made the world look like something else for a little while.
A friend called this morning and insisted on a FaceTime call, though I warned said person I was wearing a tank top and was sweaty and gross from trundling my flab on the exercise bike==but when I agreed to it, surprise! Their camera showed me FALLING SNOW, so very beautiful, especially to my parched, sun-and-smoke dried eyes, as I wipe lavender on the latest crop of mosquito bites.
Oh, pretty! The first snow is always so lovely, especially when there are still leaves on the trees - I love that look of the green covering up the white. (Is this unusually early where you are? It wouldn't be early in Alaska, but I don't remember getting snow in Illinois until late Nov. or Dec.)
I had an outdoor volunteer shift yesterday morning, so I did not appreciate the falling snow quite as much as I would have if I had had more of an indoors option, but walking home from work at the end of the day with the lights shining off the snowy branches and arriving to a hot shower and hot soup truly did make everything worth it.

Beautiful, especially if you don't have to shovel it.
