Snow in Seattle ...

It takes very little to make me excited. And when it's 7 inches of snow in my backyard ... I dont need more.

Fresh snow ... fresh fresh snow. A mountainous amount lying around everywhere I look. And still, you can squeeze it into a small ball of tightened snow, that fits right into your hands.

I love the touch of snow on my skin. Cold! Cold as hell for sure. But it gives a fresh feeling like nothing else. The chillness makes the skin spring back to life.

It's not a surprise that snow is a treat for the eyes. The view is simply astonishing. The slanting roof-tops covered with snow gives a feeling like it's Europe or maybe Switzerland.

The evergreen trees are white now, with snow on every one of it's branches. Snow tapering on and hanging from every single leaf. The array of pine trees gives a feel of Christmas all over. And a snowy one too. I wish I could decorate the tall tree in my backyard with Christmas ribbons and ornaments and put a star on top. I would seriously have the biggest and most fabulous Christmas tree :). Even the trees that don't have leaves on them look so pretty. That's the magic of snow. It gives life to dead trees or a lifeless surrounding.

Pretty as hell! I am enjoying it while they last!!

Merry Christmas!
