Fred, I am no longer able to paddle about in deep snow quite as much as I used to. For all that, I remember winter days in the woods with my late husband when it was so still we could hear snowflakes falling on the old trees. I remember how the snowflakes smelled, and how they tasted on my tongue. It was sublime.
Thanks for this reflection. You have a treasure trove of photos to enjoy.

In the heart of nature's grand expanse, Where wildflowers sway and rivers dance, The wilderness stands, a timeless guard, A sanctuary, a world unmarred.
Oh, wilderness, you breathe life anew, With forests deep and skies so blue. Your mountains rise, majestic and bold, A refuge for creatures, young and old.
In your embrace, the world finds peace, A symphony of life that will never cease. From whispering winds to roaring seas, You hold the secrets of ancient trees.
You cleanse the air, you purify, A guardian of earth and sky. In your vastness, we find our place, A reminder of nature's grace.
Oh, wilderness, savior of the world, In your arms, life's beauty is unfurled. May we protect you, cherish your worth, For you are the heart of our precious earth.
Gorgeous photos. Many a snow has fallen around that barn.
Helpful to remember that Ann had to drive a long way through that snow to make her serums.
