Halfway down the Danube

First snow

Well, not really, because we already had a bout of snow in October. This episode seems much more time-appropriate, though.

It's been snowing the last ten minutes or so. It's just past 3:30 on the second advent Sunday, all my men are asleep and I'm wondering whether the snow will stay so that we can build a snowman tomorrow.

[a bit later] Well -- Douglas and Alan woke up as I was writing this, and the snow stopped after just dusting our street. Now it's turning into a very grey late afternoon, dull winter light and the birds huddling in the trees.

Time to make cookies.
