Just have to add that I lived in East Aurora NY during the blizzard of '77 and it WAS beautiful to look at the big picture window of a nice warm cozy home but it created quite a mess and a lot of the picture window was covered, snow up to the rooftop on one side of the house, couldn't get a car out of the drive way and when the town snowplowed our street it blocked the driveway with so much more snow. whew long sentence.
So happy in early 80s when dh job transferred him to sunny CA, where we had a view of beautiful snow-topped mountains to our north and east. Just right for me, didn't have to dress for cold or shovel snow, get stuck in it, and no sloshing around in grocery store parking lots, getting carts stuck.
But I totally agree ... beautiful photo. And if all you are going to do is sit in your quilting studio, it is just perfect.
