We had our first big snowfall of the year earlier this week.
The first snow of the year is always exciting. But somewhere between the first and the last, something always seems to change. Novelty becomes normal, then the normal becomes monotonous.
May we all keep a fresh mind this winter! (^_^)
Wake Up and Laugh! 
Following the snow, the bright sunlight!
That’s a beautiful photo, Joseph! Where is it? It has a real “Chinese” look to it.
It’s in Ma-i-san, if you hang a left just after the park entrance, the trail leads up to this temple. There’s a really nice view of the Horse Ears from there.
wow – this is a real place?!? Amazing!
~yeah! Those were pretty much my thoughts the first time I visited…
