When the snow starts falling at Snow Day, our townhome near Wintergreen’s golf course, everything goes quiet. The air feels soft, the light turns silver, and even the dogs seem calmer. We start before sunrise with coffee by the fire and watch the world turn white outside the windows.

I always start the day on the screened porch with a cup of coffee, a blanket, and our dogs curled up nearby. The only movement is the reflection of clouds drifting on the water.
