(03JAN2009) Most of the snow comes while I slumber.
I have my windows covered up to give me a nice dark area to sleep in, and so I don’t see it until I pop outside to brush my teeth. The edge of my doormat is dusted with snow, and I peek around the corner to see the sandbags and bunkers down the lane with the same white coating.
I hear later that it came in large flakes, but it was fleeting and relatively little of it stuck. It nonetheless adds a bit of seasonal charm to the base, and I’m grateful for the change of scenery, even if it makes the walk around post a little wetter.
