It was a bright and sunny day but a northerly wind was developing as a super, Cape Hatteras type storm was developing along the eastern seaboard. It would be an historic storm with perhaps a metre of snow over much of the northeast including Metropolitan Boston. Environment Canada had issued an Extreme Cold Warning: A period of very cold wind chills is expected. Hazard: Wind chill values near minus 35. 

I was still playing with the small, smooth and slippery MDF panels. The afternoon shadows of other trees crawled up the trunk of a large sugar maple in the Singleton forest. My goal was to say more with fewer brush strokes...
