transformed

As it says in the title, this blog is about the, "signs of the times from rural Vermont", the changes observed in the natural world and otherwise. Some of these changes occur gradually, the turning of the leaves in the fall, the greening of the grass in the spring. Some of these changes occur suddenly, like the appearance of icicles this time of year, and the sound of thunder as the world warms up in the spring. There is no event that brings more sudden and profound change than the first major snowfall of the year. The world is utterly transformed. This occurred for us on Wednesday.
