First Snow

I got pictures of our first snow of the season. It started coming down yesterday and continued most of today.


This is the same tree in my avatar sans foliage.


This one is the view in the other direction, down the street and our little, frosted Japanese Maple.

They're forecasting snow for tonight, cold and clear for Friday and sunny but cold for Saturday. We don't usually get snow around here until late December. Brrrr....I'm off to boost the heat again.

I love snow. The only time I was upset was in NYC, as the thaw began and the clean up was slow and slow witted and you had to walk half a block to the middle of a street, in order to cross and avoid the lake buildup at the corners. Not to mention that heavy traffic, both pedestrian and automotive, turned this beautiful stuff black.

I always enjoy watching it snow. For one thing we never get too much moisture there in Colorado, so we see it as a gift from the sky. Of course, I have the luxury of not having to drive to work every day, so I can enjoy it.

Between you and troutbend and crazylife, that's all the snow I wish to see this winter. Unfortunately, our time will come. I won't be posting pics.

It's snowing right now.

At least it doesn't hang around for too long. I used to live in Kamloops, BC. There, it gets so cold, the first snow stayed until the Spring thaw. It's also very dry so you need to remember to breath through your mouth or your nostrils will stick together when you inhale....seriously.

OMG. NIMBY.

Have you been texting your son a lot? It took me five minutes to figure out what you said. I have also figured out that you're not sitting on someone and punching him in the face, in your avatar. It's a log.....right?

That's the silver lining.
