A cold and beautiful winter's night is setting in and life is good.

No cloud cover and 8" of snow will bring on low temps but
I have my son and dog here w/ me. Cross country skiing in
the AM. Life is good and I am a rich man.

I guess the full moon is just past but I love the name anyway. It's a lovely time, even here in the PNW where we're mostly clouds and rain. I did see the moon during my early morning insomnia and it was lovely indeed.

We had a light dusting of fresh, sparkly snow yesterday and everything was glistening. Should be clear tonight too. Lovely time for a walk.
