To all my Aussie Family and Friends,

Life is wonderful!! Look at the snow! If there is one thing in life  that I can not ever think about living without now is SNOW!! Thought  you may like to see some photos I took yesterday after a big  snow storm the night before. Photos just do not do the snow justice!  Absolutely gorgeous! The calm and peacefulness of snow as she  graciously falls from the heavens and settles gently on the trees and  ground. For someone like me who has never experienced the joy of snow before can sit outside for ages just lapping up the peace like being  in silent meditation.

But the locals have a 'slightly' different point of view from myself.  After every snow storm many of the neighbors come out and ask me if  I am sick of the snow yet.. I just give a typical Aussie answer and  say..."Nope, never"! Though I must admit the shoveling is a little  hard on the back! lol

Anyhow, hope all is well with you all. I shall get to writing to you  again soon with more updates....and more of a detailed letter.

Much love & blessings to you all, Tracy
