There is nothing like the first snow of the season to get everyone in a tizzy. For some, it's about driving, especially without their winter tires on yet. For some, it means they can bring out their skies and for many, it's joy and excitement. Snow is the most striking visual signal that Christmas and the magic of the holidays are on their way.
This week marked the first major snow for most of us in the North East. And... although we get a 'first' snow every year, some seem always surprised. This years first snow was met with traffic jams, accidents and multiple car pile ups. It's as if many forget or bury memories of the winter before.
Count me in with the group who still gets exited. I have to admit that my excitement is't as strong as it used to be, but opening my bedroom window this morning, to see blankets of white, that tingle of childhood exhilaration and anticipation was alive and well.
I have been looking forward to featuring these shots of Matthew Dunston by takeapic4u for awhile now, but held off until the snowflakes started to fall. FH readers are familiar with Matthew from my previous stories (HERE:) and he certainly adds the heat to take the chill off the long winter ahead.
