“Fast, fat snowflakes fell through the chill, gray air — falling stars from the not-quite-morning sky.” Beautiful essay. Poetic.

Thank you - every time I feel self conscious doing a voiceover I remember you saying this :) There is definitely some Jersey nasal in this one - I heard it in "Camp Creek" and some other short "a"'s.

Beautiful photos, thank you for sharing! I loved the ice-encased plants, especially the blueberries and the bright colored birds in the white snow.

Thank you! I loved them too - it was wonderful having all that time, with nowhere else to be, to really look at these things. I grew up in the north and I think I took some of this for granted, but now I can really appreciate the details.
