Snowed In

Picture of the Day for 12/19/2013. Major, major, major snowstorm today which didn't let up all day. By the evening, I was pretty much snowed in. Although driving was out, I did walk around the corner to my church to attend choir practice. We're preparing for our Christmas program next Sunday. No pansy Christmas songs for us- we're doing Handel, Mendelssohn, and Hadyn and being accompanied by an orchestra made up by members of the congregation. I think there's something in the water in our neighborhood since there's a disproportionate number of talented musicians in such a small geographic area. 

Anyhoo, rhapsodizing about the choir and the Christmas program is not the point of this blog entry. Just wanted to say how fun it was to walk at night along the snowy streets. The snow glows so white and dampens sound which makes the world seem so peaceful and still- like something out of a Christmas carol. Love it.
