Not heavy, maybe three to five inches, enough to be beautiful and calling to me. I first noticed it when I saw that my little red house was covered with snow as was its backyard.
My next view was of my new bird feeder. Signs of some early morning customers other than the tin cardinal.
I had been thinking about the snowfall during the wakeup process, realizing that I’d have to get out there and see what the world looked like with soft, white, rounded corners. Bundled and hooded against the wind chill I headed out onto the campus.

Also on my must-list this morning was the nearby iconic Kirby’s Mill on the southwest branch of Rancocas Creek. The first structure here dates from 1778 and there have been additions over the years.
