The stillness of snow

One of the things that I love about living here is how quiet it is.  Especially during a snow storm.  Everything is so still and quiet; it is like the world is holding its breath!

Every now and then I get the whiff of the wood fire coming from the chimney of one of the neighbors.  I can’t see them through the trees, but the smell of their home fires tell me they are there just the same.

I love to bundle up and stand outside and listen to the quiet and breathe in the scent of snow.  Have you ever smelled it?  It is so fresh and crisp.  I wonder why the laundry detergent companies and air freshner companies don’t sell a product that smell like it.  They could call it “snowstorm.”
