Wake Up Call

Good morning!  I have three unfinished posts sitting in Draft, this being the oldest - written a week ago Monday on January 25th.  So, it seemed like a good place to start catching up.  
We got another dumping of heavy, wet snow that weekend, and this is what I wrote last Monday morning: 

Not meaning to be boastful, but I wanted to share the view out the bedroom window this morning.

I put the camera right ON my pillow.  Not a bad wake-up call, is it?  So, complete with dead flies on the sill, here is the view to the left (south):

And, finally, to the right in a west-northwesterly direction: 

See why Swamp River Ridge is such a magical place to be?
