December 2009 Snowstorm at The Collins House Inn in Marion, VA
Winter (here in Marion, VA) rarely passes without one or two truly beautiful snowfalls. The one shown in the photo here came a couple of weeks ago and blanketed us with about 10 inches. This photo was taken later in the evening — hence, the reason some of the snowflakes look more like little meteors.
I think a snowstorm is one of life’s simple pleasures — not only because of its visual beauty, but because of the unmatched calm and quiet that comes over everything.
Here at The Collins House Inn, we always embrace Winter and find it the perfect time of year for our guests to cozy up by the fire with a nice glass of wine or mug of hot chocolate and just enjoy the peace and quiet.
