Crystal Wonderland
Diamond-laden trees, twinkling in the light
Bushes filled with pristine snow, shining and bright
A clean new world awaits us today
The silence is eerie, but peaceful in its own way
I’m snug and warm, looking down from the window
I almost think I can taste the frosty cold
The chill is exhilarating in my mind
A day for dreaming and being lost in time
We rarely see this type of Crystal Wonderland
In Washington, D.C., for one day, it’s grand!

I once live in Northern VA within the DC metro region, so hold on as spring will be sprung in a couple of weeks.

I grew up in Cleveland, Ohio, the mistake on the lake.We had snow like this all winter. It’s very different here in D.C. People don’t know how to drive in it. There’s not enough funds to handle road treatment and plowing. But the big difference, of course, is that I have changed. My lack of mobility keeps me indoors, but it’s still beautiful to watch it from my window.

Yes, beautiful to look at, not travel in lol. Your Ohio winters are quite comparable to Toronto. I’m quite sure places like Texas and Nevada are most certainly not prepared for snow either 🙂

I was just in DC on Wednesday. My first time there. Loved it! The snow was just starting to fall when we were heading out for Williamsburg. Beautiful photos.

It was mystical and breathtaking, especially since we rarely ever get this much snow at one time. Williamsburg, VA is incredible. Hope you have a great time! Christmas in Williamsburg is so beautiful.
