Beauty amidst the inclement winter weather

My dear friends, whilst I was about my duties upon the estate this afternoon, the sky brightened between the rain clouds and the wind, and the sun shone brightly forth. My lady guardian, who was accompanying me, and I paused to witness this golden glow across the countryside. What a joyous sight to behold amidst such inclement weather. Here again, I believe in the maxim oft attributed to Kurt Vonnegut " Enjoy the small things in life because one day you will look back and realise they were the big things". So apt my dears, so apt! What a joyous celebration of golden, do you not agree?

I do so hope you are as beguiled by nature and the elements as my guardian and I.
