Hearing You Can Call Me Al -- Paul Simon

Diamonds in the Yard




This is one of those times where a picture doesn't do the thing justice: The frost on my yard and the angle of the rising sun makes it look like the entire yard is covered in sparkly jewels. It won't last -- the frost is already melting -- but at the moment I reminded that cold weather isn't a bad thing, esthetically speaking. I just wish the picture here showed it better.
