Winter in the South? Can it be true?

It seems that every winter is getting warmer in the South (and apparently all over from what people tell us on our tours), but this week old man winter decided to finally pay us a visit! I’ve missed having snow here. We had a few inches today, and I hope that it doesn’t all turn to muck too quickly. Trouble here is that the temps never go that low and once you have that nice powder it mushes into the ground in a blink of an eye.

We’ve been working on new music for our album; so, it helps to have ‘artistic’ weather like rain, snow, or gray days that create a nice setting for staying inside while working on the tunes. We like to sit in our front room which has a big window w/ an arch top. You can see the flakes hit at the window and yet be cozy inside. That is a good vibe for art. As long as you have plenty of warm tea to sip.

I’m going to take some pictures to document this rare scene. Today we’ll also enjoy the tavern on our square that has 45 different beers and homemade soup . It will be fun to sit and watch the snow fall, give ourselves plenty of sustenance (meaning beer) for our new music rehearsals later today, and warm up to Winter’s brief appearance here.
