from the balcony of my new home



This was the first snowfall this winter, but only the highest peak in the sierra, at nearly 1.500 metres, got a decent snow covering. Those a couple of hundred metres bellow only got a thin dusting.


It's very cold around here, although not as bad as in the UK, and I had to have my wood burning stove lit most of the day. It was good to make use of its inbuilt oven to roast squash. Pity, though, that all my efforts to learn how to lay wood and light the fire were not enough to make the room warm...
