Those who contemplate the beauty of the earth find reserves of strength that will endure as long as life lasts.
--Rachel Carson
This is a picture of our backyard- taken this morning. Our yard was gifted with a beautiful blanket of white snow. It was incredible to wake up and see such beauty. The world was covered (at least my world) with such wonderful white. I took several pictures this morning. I waited each moment for the sun to shine and cast such brilliance on my subject. The chairs.... there is nothing better than to sit by the creek at night (with a campfire) or by day with the light shimmering on the water. I am grateful for this gift. Today... the world is WHITE! My yard is a gift.... THE BEAUTY OF THE EARTH!
