Here on the Third Floor...

 you can hear the roof vent spinning on the windiest days, and you can hear the rain hitting the roof, and slapping against the windows, depending which direction the wind is coming from...

Yesterday:  windy, then wet.  A rainy early morning and now

Snow.  Beautiful, heavy, thick, glorious springtime showers.  Heavy, heavy, heavy!  The green branches of the old pine outside the window are already starting to sag, and while I haven't yet been to the window to see it close up, I know the flag is wet and hanging close to the pole...

It's just coming down thick, heavy and white, with no sign of letup.  The branches are large and long, and the ones furthest out are drooping by the minute.

Still, when you are up inside a warm brick building, just watching it fall, there is nothing more beautiful in nature... 

... except God's next miraculous gift!

Make it a great... Wednesday.  Personal prayers up for prayers answered.  Stay safe out in the snow, but enjoy it while it lasts, if you are able and local.  This window throughout the year in a changing climate is better than a large-screen tv really.  Very relaxing... when inside and warm.  Thanks be.  #GratefulHeart

Added:  No pictures, no videos. Some things I've learned to keep for me, and some things cannot be captured properly on film.  A springtime snowstorm is one of them... ok off here, making excuses to gather up trash and take out the garbage, maybe sweep off the outside HHR, so it is less heavy later...

Also, I like what the wet natural moisture does for my sometime dryish indoors hair... (vain, yet. Nature in bits and pieces:  a 21st century luxury, really...)  Make it a good one.  Take control of your day.  Only person who can do that is you. (note to self)

More:  ah, not fast enough... 

I can tell by the sounds above, now it's turned to rain...
