A White October

 I had a delightful surprise when I looked out the front door at about 5:30 on Saturday morning.  Snow! I thought the first picture would be the end of it--that it wouldn't amount to anything more, but an hour later we had this:

By around 1pm, we had really good coverage on the ground, and when it was all over we had maybe about 4 inches of wet, heavy snow. 

My husband was saying that had it been a bit colder we would have even more but since it was so wet, it really packed down hard. 

That was perfect in my opinion, though, because so often snow is too powdery to do anything with.  But not this snow! We did all the wonderful things that one is expected to do on a snow day and we have the piles of wet boots and outerwear to prove it!

I hope those of you in the path of this weird storm enjoyed it as much as we did! :-D
