Winter!

Winter is my favorite season, second only to autumn. And at last, it feels as if we're finally experiencing winter.

I have pictures from our home to illustrate...

And here is Virginia's enthusiastic response to the snow.

I prefer winter and fall, when you feel the bone structure of the landscape - the loneliness of it, the dead feeling of winter. Something waits beneath it; the whole story doesn't show.

LOL

I have to admit this was one of the things that really tipped the balance into moving to Scotland, the cooler summers. People kept saying 'but it's so much colder up there'. Our response was, 'Yes, lovely, isn't it?'

Not, I hasten to add that we've had a Winter anything like we were expecting. In fact parts of England have had more snow/been colder than we have!

Oh wow. I really must go to Scotland. Of course I might decide never to leave! :)
