on an overcast day. When I look to the fields behind my home, I see little or no horizon, no difference between the earth and the sky. I see only a white, or gray-white monotony.

Let's hope we have some variety soon.

It seems that where I live, winter is always overcast. Gray sky, gray and bare trees, gray dirty snow.

I am home bound,connected to a vac pump and the only place I go is to wound care twice a week. There is little color but pics on the wall. It's great to be able to remember the beauty that is out there even if it is out of reach. Thanks for bringing a little color to those otherwise white day!
