Stopping by woods, on a snowy evening


I used to know every word of that Frost poem - whose woods these are, I think I know, his house is in the village, though -- miles to go before I sleep -- miles to go before I sleep --
We are leaving Yosemite tomorrow, and it's been a wonderful trip, the first trip with Sophie that was actually fun in many years. The photo above is of a sleigh that we rode into the snowy woods. Sophie loved it and gazed up at the towering firs and sequoias with rapt expression. I'll have lots and lots of photos to show this weekend.
I hope you've had a lovely new year's week!

    Happy New Year, Elizabeth! So glad you all got a beautiful break and Sophie loved it too. On Christmas Eve I watched an old and very beautiful nature film on Yosemite at Christmas. Stark wonderful peace.

    Hoping 2013 brings good and easy your way.
