New fallen Snow measuring a foot or more, has provided a beautiful covering to the hard frozen ground, making everything look bright and clean. At the same time, it also cautions us to respect changing conditions around us. We need to watch for slick icy patches, or take a different route when the slush and snow is too deep on the hills, to be more careful as we travel about.
Though the snow preceded the seasons change, fall will turn into winter Tuesday, 12/22/15, as indicated by the winter solstice, that phenomena of nature, based on the earth's relationship to the sun.
