Snow in Vicksburg

Here are some more photos from Vicksburg and the Vicksburg National Military Park following a snowfall last Friday night. Gen. Grant and his horse, above, stand sentinel over the park.
Four leaves aren't ready to make the leap on this tree in downtown Vicksburg Friday night.

The lake on Tucker Road early Saturday morning. I don't know the name of the lake.

  2. Oh, that third one down, at the lake!! The colors and the mist and the anticipation of sunrise---a caught breath which lasts for minutes and hours.

    And see that little cleared spot over to the right, beneath the tree? There's a little path there, which leads back and in, to a small cottage with light in the windows; there's the glow of a fire and the scent of cookies fills the air. You lift the latch, step in and are welcomed home.

    I wish you light and warmth and the joy of home all through the season. My very best wishes to you and your beautiful family,
