When I walked out of work Saturday morning, I so wished that I had my camera with me. What I saw all around me was the definition of a winter wonderland. Every single tree that I could see was coated with fresh white snow. That simple covering transformed the landscape into something magical in appearance and reminded me why I like winter as much as I do. Yes, the temperature is cold here for months at a time, but the sight I saw is something that people in Florida may never see in their lifetime. I however get to see it every year.
Since I cannot travel myself at this time of year, I thoroughly enjoyed watching Michael Palin make his way from the North Pole to the South Pole. In the first three episodes he crossed Norway, Finland, Russia, Ukraine, Turkey and Egypt. I recognized Helsinki in the program, but everything else was new to me.
