"Patriotic Snow"

I spent most of my day in bed in horrible pain.  The weather combined with a barometric pressure swing that entails going from almost 50 degrees down to currently in the single digits did not do well for my body.   

Putting all that aside , I love taking photographs in the snow.  The short bit out if bed , I spent a total of about an hour today taking photos in the dark early this morning, as the sun rose and then when it was up this afternoon.  Of all the shots I took today, I share my favorite : "Patriotic Snow".  Enjoy!
