My response was quite simply, in a word...GRATEFUL.

After enduring dark gray days for almost two months so far with only a few hours of sunshine, several feet of snow topped with ice resulting in going days without power (my studio was 34 degrees) and cooking meals in the main fireplace, I too, look back fondly at the sublime days of Summer and with anticipation of Spring's emeregence of early snowdrops and crocuses. Thank you for your "warm" comments!
