Snowing at Puffer's Pond, South Beach - 12-25-2012 |
Although conditions may not be ideal for breaking out the snow shoes or cross country skis (in Amherst anyway), nature has brought us a lovely, gentle dusting of snow this Christmas morning. It’s expected to continue snowing lightly until around noon today, so we may even come close to accumulating an inch of the white stuff. No complaints here, however. My morning walk to Puffer’s Pond and along the Robert Frost Trail was beautiful. Except for the snow falling gently, everything else was still, with every tree and stone etched in white. Enjoy the view, everyone - and to those who are celebrating, have a very merry Christmas!
just enough snow to scrape off the ramp, deck and steps to make it safe to take the walker up into the house for our visitor who is disabled. sigh. spread calcium chloride over all to make sure it wasn't icy. our visitor has broken 3 bones in the past year and is unsteady on his feet. from merrimack, nh.
ReplyDeleteThis is exactly why folks need to take seriously clearing away even small amounts of snow - it can freeze into a treacherous icy surface. I didn't slip once on my walk around Puffer's, mind you, as I was wearing stablicers on the entire trip. I didn't even realize it was slippery until I watched a young couple slip-sliding around. Stay safe!
