Hello, Hive.
It snowed over the weekend and more snow is being predicted for the upcomming one. Many people dislike snow; even many Minnesotans. I enjoy it, though. It's even better when you can work from home and shoveling the driveway can wait.
Saturday evening and Sunday morning, I went out to see what there was to see. Here are a few of the results.
Post-Sunset FieldSnow is particularly beautiful when it's fresh. It blankets the countryside, smoothing out the bumps and obscuring the dirt and grime. Fresh snow always reminds me of a fresh start; something I could use about now.
The God of the BisonThe central attraction for these bison seems to be a strange-looking bale of hay. I didn't know that the park fed the bison, as they do have sufficient range for year-round grazing. It was snowing, though, and maybe they were just being nice. This one is from Sunday morning.
Gravel RoadAfter grabbing a coffee to go, I went down a gravel road where I knew I'd be alone to watch the snow. It was peaceful. I could have stayed all day, if not for worrying that the snow would accumulate and make the hill unclimbable.
Sunday Evening - After the Storm
It has been a difficult week, mostly due to work. Things have not been going well and I ended up working twelve hours yesterday. Combine that with being alone 100% of the time and Valentine's Day advertising already being shoved in my face and it makes for a very depressing time of year.
For now, I'll just enjoyu the snow and try to ignore everything else. There's a bottle of Spanish (of course!) wine waiting in the cupboard.
