Snow We Got

Yes, we (finally) had almost a whole day of snow here in Nashua, NH last Friday. What was supposed to be a light snow of 2-3 inches ended up leaving behind about 5-6 inches. It was a beautiful snowfall that clung to the trees and branches.

When the storm was over by early afternoon, the temperature was warming up and so I took a walk outdoors. 

The maintenance crew here at the mill apartment where we live always do a great job of keeping the walkways cleared.  


There were some nice views from our apartment windows; the grounds and trees were snow-covered and the late afternoon sky was a tapestry of pale hues.


The imagery is a bit blurred in this shot as shooting through the windows was challenging due to condensation. This view shows the Nashua River and at the very far end is Main Street in downtown Nashua, NH.

This view across the Nashua River shows another mill building which is undergoing renovations and will be converted to apartments.

All of these mill buildings are located in what is known as the Nashua Millyard district and many were formerly connected to the Nashua Manufacturing Company, a textile mill. The district is listed on the National Register of Historic Places. Some buildings have been converted into apartment housing, artist workshops, and a technology complex.

Lots of pretty pics here. I viewed them all large.

We have only had a few dustings lately. Surely we are bound to get a whopper before it's all over.

I like the fresh clean smell of new snow. I can almost smell it from your photos.

The photos taken from your window look like greeting card images. Just beautiful.

Your views through your window are truly lovely, and I enjoyed all your other photos too. We'll be getting more snow down this way too, probably in the next day or so. Spending some time with the family in Virginia Beach.

You live in a beautiful area. The snow gave you some new perspectives with all the drifts. The colors of the town are great from all the lights.

It is so pretty outside after a snow. It is such a shame that it clogs movement.
