Snow on the roof!
Significant snow is somewhat uncommon in our part of East Tennessee. We are in the Little Tennessee River Valley at about 800 feet of elevation with a large lake to moderate the temperature.
A bit of sleet and a dusting of the white stuff is about normal for winter precipitation in Tellico Village so we were surprised this past weekend when the local weather folks quit hedging their bets and started talking in certainties and inches.
By noon on Monday, we had over 6 inches on the ground with light snow still falling – a real blizzard by local standards and an opportunity to see our home from a different perspective.
Snowy triangles
Our driveway retaining wall displays a beautiful pattern of triangles reaching into the distance as the snow hides the imperfections and every day patterns to present us with a new perspective.
Birdbath snowy frosting
The bird bath takes on the look of a well frosted cake. All around me are sites and items presented in a beautiful new way and I am pleased to pause a few moments to reflect on my good fortune.
Glad you were home for this one and not driving through it 🙂
