For the first time in as far back as I can remember, it snowed on Christmas Day. Pretty much all day, in fact. A nearly perfect snow, too—soft, fluffy, not too much, but enough to have to sweep, shovel, and plow. Plenty of hikers at Beech Hill, too, which was nice, if unexpected. Even few birds up there, as well.

Peace to you all.
