Well, finally, we, in southeast Alaska, are to have winter- a winter storm watch is on for the next 24 hours.

Given the misery this winter's weather has brought others, I know it is insensitive of me to be glad for our new snow- but I do like seasonal weather. I don't want winter storms in April, for instance, nor heavy snow weighting down trees still in full leaf.

I don't require perfection, you see, but I do like excellence. :)
