Beauty in White

The first real blizzard conditions in Maine this year dropped a good 2 feet of snow on much of the state in less than a day.  And then another solid storm dumped at least another foot.  Although this definitely can bring some conveniences, like traveling, to a total halt, Maine is more than used to a little snow.  In fact, as Larry Chadwick says, it's part of the reason they live there.  One look at the pristine beauty of the photos in today's post should be enough to back up his opinion.
