a land of hush

This week was apparently time for our approximately-once-a-year pile of snow. We live on the side of a mountain up a steep partially unpaved driveway, so we were stuck in our cozy home watching the white winds and eating bowls of fluffy snow with maple syrup for four days (woohoo!), with brief interludes to fruitlessly attempt to shovel the driveway and try out our best swears.

The snow's completely gone now after a couple of days of warm rain. The world is a little sharper and a little louder without it.
