snow flies
tingles but doesn’t bite,
winter’s waning
Copyright 2018 Brenda Davis Harsham
Notes: Took this photograph yesterday while a few inches fell. Puffy, white flakes would have delighted us in December but make us roll our eyes in April. The snow melted the same day. Green shoots are popping up, and trees are starting to bloom.

OH… in New England! Very similar to Uxbridge, except the building on the left side is shorter. Just think–common mill dam designs!

Thanks! I was happy the snowflakes came out. They were huge and puffy, which helped.

Ours was more wet—or at least they became mushy on the car quicker 🙂
