A warm sunny day – most of the snow gone. P.M. sketch of view across Bengerts to the S.W. The sun a pale white glow in a misty, ever changing sky - Everything seemed full of goodness & interest again – and my feeling about our village as it should be - i.e. as of a north country with December sun low in the south -
