“How many lessons of faith and beauty we should lose, if there were no winter in our year!” —Thomas Wentworth Higginson
This week, we woke twice to magical, sparkling branches that I thought was hoar frost until I learned that this lovely weather phenomenon is actually rime ice. Rime ice happens when the water droplets of a dense fog (in liquid form) are super cooled by coming in contact with surfaces below freezing. Hoar frost is when water vapor (which is a gas) freezes onto a below-freezing surface. I love learning new words. Science + vocabulary + seasonal beauty = LOVE!
Today was a challenging day for all Americans. I needed to find some beauty in the world.
