It's a Beautiful Day

Being a true Minneso(stretched out, long O sound)tan. I love this morning. The wind blew all sorts of designs into the new snow we got yesterday. Despite the below zero temps the sun is shining brilliantly. My studio is toasty warm. The snow is sparkly and fresh. The drifts have created all kinds of relief sculptures among the tops of he plants I see from my living room window. I much prefer this to the gray, dingy, shrunken piles that lay on the ground a couple days ago. Sure winter is long, but this is absolutely beautiful.
