View from the Back Room




So we are having some....lovely....weather here in NJ. Basically the weather people have NO idea what they are talking about. I woke up this morning to a winter wonderland, although before I went to bed the weather people where saying rain in the AM. Anywho, one thing I have always liked about my house is when it snows and the view in the backyard. Living in suburbia, you would never think about finding "tranquility" in your 60 by 30 back yard. However, in the 5 years I lived here, I have always been struck with how pretty and peaceful the view of my backyard looks to me when it snows. I dont know why, but I love it. I live in my grandmother's house and on days like this I can see why she stayed in this cottage for 54 years. Despite living in a post-war cookie cutter subdivision in a run-of-the mill Cape Cod, my house always seems more homey and cozy and welcoming when it snows. Enjoy my view!
