Let it Snow!

The first big snow storm of the season hit us on Tuesday night/Wednesday morning. I guess this is what happens when an Alberta clipper meets Southern moisture crashes with up-sloping westerly winds. Either way it made for a lot of  very wet heavy snow. I put Sophia's coat and boots on so we could go get the mail and she had fun for 2 minutes until she lost her balance and got all wet from falling into a snow bank. She loved running around on the deck and trying to eat the snow off the deck chairs.

Tuesday night before I went to bed it was really starting to accumulate

This stuff is cold!

So pretty when the sun came up.

Paul got a ton of show up in the mountain! He was at a training summit in Evergreen, and I am glad he didn't have to come back down the mountain until most of it had been cleared. A lot of people lost power because the trees were breaking branches under all the weight of the leaves and heavy, wet snow. It sure was pretty though.
