Snow...

Have you ever noticed, that at night, when it snows, in the neighborhood, it's completely and totally silent? I'm not talking about just regular silence, like the silence you hear every other night. I'm talking about how, it could be only 10pm, and there is not a single sound, almost as if the snow is muffling everything. Or maybe, all the noisemakers (birds, bugs, people, cars), seem to notice that it is in fact snowing, and they sort of stop making the noise to admire it. Then, once they realize that they aren't making any noise, they don't really want to start again, because they don't want to break that peaceful silence. I'm Just Sayin...
