Snow Day

Ready to go outside in the 12º weather: insufferably warm ragg wool sweater, Columbia fleece, ski hat, photographer's mittens, and my darkest sunglasses.

I don’t normally play hooky on days when it’s snowy out, but with Abby’s office closed and absolutely everything canceled at my office, I decided to stay home. As always, like in the other three seasons, I went outside to make pictures. After the fierce blowing and drifting yesterday, today it was sunny and calm, with a feel very much like those great days snow skiing in northern New Mexico.

Our driveway covered in snow; I love the deep blue skies and brilliant sunshine on days like this.
