Snow


We've had a lot of snow again lately — the pretty fluffy kind that looks beautiful against the night sky. The hush of evening snowfall reminds me of this still from the film Into Great Silence, a documentary by Philip Groening about the Grande Chartreuse monastery, a silent monastic order in the French Alps. Must see this film someday ...

It's just started snowing here! Am cuddling up at home for the afternoon. Sounds like a very interesting film, by the way.

We might see our yard in May :) I'm glad I love snow, because we are fortunate to have a lot. I especially love the quiet it brings.

You really must see it! It's beautiful. That still captures the idea. Thanks for putting it up to remind me. What a nice thought for a busy afternoon -- the quiet life of the monks!
