Eliza Waters 
Cloaked in silence
Yes, it was. I had to stop the car, it was so quintessential New England. 🙂
Snuggled in the silence Eliza 🤗🎄🎅🎶🎁🕊️🦌☃️❤️🙏
Thank you, Mark. ❄️
A lovely peaceful view of the church in the snow. 😃
Thank you, Cathy. A classic New England scene. 🙂
What a lovely shot….perfectly New England!
Thank you! 💙
Especially with the snow-cover, it’s a warm, sheltered, capture.
Thank you, Alice. It was a ‘stop the car’ moment. 🙂
We are getting dusted a bit more this morning – I bet that view has snow white branches this morning.
I love seeing branches etched in white, so beautiful!
The white steeple against the dark trees is a perfect touch; it adds to the serenity of the image.
Thank you, Linda, it’s a sweet little village, which also has a tiny old stone library that is so appealing.
The perfect New England scene.
Agreed! Thanks 🙂
A serene feeling in this restful scene 🕊️✨😌
Thank you, Susan!
Speaking of “silent,” I think the fact that the t in nestle in silent prevents many people from realizing that the verb nestle is based on the noun nest.
👍🏼
So peaceful! We’re wrapped in white here too this morning – a dense marine layer. It’s not as pretty but it does dampen sound from the port.

Thank you, Kris. Our snowfalls dampen sound, too. We rarely get that dense a fog, but it happens. You must feel like you are in a cocoon!
The countryside looks all tucked in. Very nice, Eliza!
Thank you, Belinda. 🙂
This looks like a Christmas card!! What a pretty and serene scene!
Thank you, Debbie! I thought the same.
Feels like a winter day in New England for sure!
Thanks, like a Currier and Ives scene. 🙂
What a beautiful Winter you’re having already Eliza! 🤍✨️
Thank you, Xenia. An early winter like this we’ve not had in a long, long time!
Such a lovely view–thanks for sharing!
Thank you, Beth!
What a peaceful and beautiful scene, wonderful photo!🙂
Thank you, S! 💙
My blood pressure dropped just looking at this serenity. Thank you.
So glad to hear that, Nailah, mission accomplished! 😀
I love that you have snow!!
I can’t remember the last time we had a white December! We have a three-day warm-up starting Wed. with rain, but I expect there will still be some white left for Christmas. ❄️
I hope you do get a white Christmas! I am still hopeful here in my corner of the world, although everything is green at the moment.
Thanks, Maria. So unusual for you! Hope the gods provide a bit of white for the holiday.
I love all the seasons, but you just can’t beat New England in the winter. I grew up in Northfield, MA. This certainly brings on Western MA memories!
Julie
Thanks, Julie. This is Shelburne… Northfield is another iconic village. Love that beautiful Main St. lined with old houses. 🙂
River? Which one?
No river, maybe a small stream between the two fields, but on the far side is a road.
Ahh, field. 🤓
🙂
So serene.
Thank you, Flavia. I feel fortunate to live in such a beautiful, rural area.
Such a beautiful scene. Looks like you’ll have a white Christmas.
Thank you, Rebecca. I think so, first in years!
It is pretty when it falls.
Yes, it truly is. 🙂
