Wow, today Marcah writes it in black when you offer a wonderful white draft... Love that - stunning how the snow is never icy at your place, but always oh-so sweet... Thanks***

Very nice. Although I associate Raymond Carver more with ring-stained coffee tables with empty liquor bottles and filled ash trays!

Impossibly beautiful, a scene of such tranquil splendour. I'd be lobbing snowballs at passers by and running about like a child, given half a chance!

Where are the snow fairies? Love the perspective, and the fact that the people in the bach are more of a hint than an actual physical presence. Good one!
