Walking in a winter wonderland
We woke up to find snow outside.
Snow.
Snow!
The last time I saw snow was in 1998, trudging through 20° weather in Boston,
at night, ever on the lookout for the next subway station, which was
inexorably “just around the corner.”
Fortunately, the snow was a light dusting over Brevard [1], and most of it
was gone by late monring.
Unfortunately, we were not ensconced under three feet of blanket, but
instead, we found ourselves trudging through 30° weather in Brevard, in the
early moring, ever on the lookout for a farmers market, which was inexorably
“just around the corner.”
Okay, I kid. It was several blocks from The Red House Inn [2], but due to the
weather and the fact that some parts of Transylvania County [3] experienced
several inches of snow, the number of sellers at the Transylvania Farmers
Market [4] was severely curtailed to about ten [DELETED-foolhardy-DELETED]
brave vendors.
The rest of the day was spent under three feet of blanket.
Snow!
