“Snowflakes are not made for solitude; each, with outflung arms, tangles and meshes with its neighbor; over time, they compress, become ice. But ice is mutable, even in the deepest cold. Inside a glacier, pressure and affinity will melt ice at temperatures far below freezing, so that two pieces, in contact with each other, melt and refreeze as one.”
from the book, Under a Pole Star by Stef Penney

Lovely snow photo, Sylvia. I wasn’t quite so appreciative of snow yesterday when Amtrak wasn’t running and we had to delay our trip home from Connecticut for a day. 🙂

Ugh. Lots of winter storms this year. Hope you got home safely. 🙂

We did. Not a problem other than the usual being cooped up on an airplane. Alaska Airlines is pretty good, however.
