It's October and it's still autumn in most part of the earth. It already snowed here. Light but persistent.
It felt good. I like snow, I like winter, I just don't like being cold. At least now it's only -2 so it's still enjoyable. To Russians, it's nothing. They only start reacting when it's below minus 10. Minus 10 seemed like a normal winter.
I gotta brace up for the real cold coming. Last year, we were battered by a minus 30 degrees and it was crazy. I was excited because it was my first time to feel such a low temperature, but it was REALLY COLD. I probably don't even need to explain, the numbers speak for it.
Good about winter is that everybody's quiet. Everybody's just busy with their own bussiness. Go to work, go back home. And when I say home, it's really in their home. Nobody is seen drinking in the yard. No "babushkas" (grandmothers) assembly, just snow, snow everywhere. It is so serene, so peaceful and beautiful but it's also very cold so you don't get the chance to enjoy being alone outside as well.
So, we'll see whàt winter has for us this year.
Wow! It's still autumn in Virginia and most afternoons are warm enough to walk around without a jacket. I'll miss this weather in January!
