Speaker A:
This is the Daily note from jamesabrown.net A cold morning with a rigid sky as the flakes in their millions soften everything they touch.
Speaker A:The first snow doesn't just fall, it hushes, taking the hard edges off the world, smoothing them out one quiet inch at a time.
Speaker A:For a few hours, our towns forget themselves and the noise fades and the streets slow.
Speaker A:Even the impatient pause at red lights a little longer as the piles build on the streets.
Speaker A:We'll complain soon enough about shoveling, about the salt, about the slush, but not yet.
Speaker A:It's new again.
Speaker A:For now.
Speaker A:What about you?
Speaker A:How does the first snow feel?
Speaker A:Tell me your two cents.
Speaker A:Email me@jamesthedailynote.net on that note.
Speaker A:I'm James A.
