Early one weekend we tried a new route and were rewarded with a beautiful frosty landscape.

It's been a long time since we've had this much snow in the area. It seems to get a little more every year. It's a wonderful change to see the landscape in different colors and shapes.

Another crazy year comes to an end. A new exciting and fresh one is just around the corner. The time between the years really has something special. I was almost about to leave the year very disoriented and without perspective. Through a generous break from uninspiring work, I can now start a new earth year with ideas, joy and energy. I hope this will stay with me for a few months.
