A WINTER PORTRAIT
OF THE KANSAS CITY METRO
"Winter is the time for comfort, for good food and warmth, for the touch of a friendly
hand and for a talk beside the fire: it is the time for home."
-Edith Stillwell

that glitters with snow, while evoking memories of chilly days, cozy gatherings, and the
