The storm over the weekend was dubbed “Fern” by weather forecasters, but this was quite the misnomer. My wife instead took to referring to the proceedings as “Snow Doom 26”, which I thought a great deal more appropriate, as “SD26” dumped more than a foot of snow right outside our doorstep. Susan, in her infinite bravery, took several walks through the maelstrom, GoPro in hand, but I instead opted to stay inside and take in the spectacle from the comfort of my “Art Desk”. From behind the safety of warm glass, I watched the wicked wind turn the heavy fall into a dance, clouds of snow swirling so thick that at times they blotted out the streetlights. Sidewalks disappeared in mere moments, and hearty souls brave enough to venture out trudged by, bundled up like balls of yarn against the cold. I’ve always loved the juxtaposition of the Inside and the Outside in these situations; the glance into a vast iciness from inside a tiny bubble, safe and warm. Like a view through the window of the cottage in the snow globe, here’s some more (US) morning mellow.
