FIRST SNOW
Gorgeous south of Germany
Celebration erupts
Excitement
Ripples through the cold November air
Virgin snowfall
First of the year
Heralds the arrival of ski season
Simple appreciation
Refreshing lack of commercialism
No lift ticket price wars
Or lodge rates competition
Pure admiration
Esteem for God’s splendor
Involuntary enjoyment
Rejoice the coming winter wonderland
Silent giant flakes
Graceful
Drifting gently
From swirling clouds of ivory precipitation
Welcome whiteout
Bavarian panorama
Stunning
Unforgettable
