Thank you for all the new views and likes from last week, it helps keep me inspired.

The Third Sunday of Advent, called Gaudete Sunday. The color for this Sunday is rose symbolizing for us rejoice since the Christ child is coming soon.

The new lift is getting ready for operation on Wachusett Mountain. They were making snow tonight near the lift to prepare for its opening.

It was a wonderful night to get out and hike. I like to hike in the winter since you do not have to deal with the rocks on the trails. I put on my microspikes and covered tonight’s four mile loop in about an hour and a half.

This is my neighbor’s driveway. I like photographing it every winter. I will most likely photograph it a few more times over the next few months. Because of its length, I think it looks like a typical winter scene here in New England.

My in-law’s house has many Santa’s. My father-in-law is Santa during the holiday season. Many children look at him at awe during the year since they are near Santa.

We were over their house after the latest snowstorm shoveling out their driveway and walkway. They do not need to be out in the snow and walking on the slippery ground.

Thursday, 12/18/2025: Posted photo — Sunrise.

Here is a photo of the sunrise from my office. The sunrise looked better in the clouds when I looked to the west than when I looked to the east to see it.

Nature always seems to impress and surprise me. Sunrises and sunsets are similar, yet two are never the same.

More snow making as the lift is getting ready to open.

Saturday, 12/20/2025: Post photo — Holiday Bouquet.

While out shopping, I saw this holiday bouquet. What caught my eye was the balloon liking decorations. I took this photo since I liked the colors of the decorations withing the flowers.

That is all for now. Until next week, be safe.
