Midwinter Snowfall

If December, January and February are the winter months then mid-January is midwinter.  This awareness of season and time seem more marked for me since I started the seasonal journals.  

We are snowed in and have been for a day or so.  Schools closed, airports open occasionally, roads blocked, the usual problems with snow ploughs and grit. We can see the gritters every now and then on the far valley road, connecting New Radnor with Kinnerton.  

I will upload some photographs of the village in midwinter; a misty day, a day of icicles and haze and deep snow.  And the village silent, eerily empty, roads almost impassable.  Midwinter.
