Winter Thyme
Winter weather in Portland usually means overcast skies and incessant rain. Though once or twice a year, the temps drop below freezing and that precipitation either turns to glorious fluffy white snow.....or treacherous ice. The last few days the mercury has dropped and we've had a dose of the latter.
The roads are slick, many stores are closed, and being that my workplace is located on a large hill, we are in what is referred to as "modified operations". I like this all encompassing term. Seems like anyone living in Portland during these ice storms could refer to it as such.
It is pretty though, everything going full 'Demolition Man', preserved in a layer of ice. One that builds slowly, allowing tiny branches, blades of grass, and even single sprigs of thyme to be frozen in place.
