Snow Day!

The big storm left over a foot of snow. Certainly not Donner Summit stuff, but pretty big time for this part of the country. So much for global warming... The sun is shining and it's beautiful! Gene has been out most of the morning on the little tractor, plowing the canyon roads and people's driveways. I just came in from driving the hoopty over to the horses and it was a real thrill ride! The wind has drifted snow back into the roads, so you just go fast and blast through the drifts! Birdie was having a hard time staying on the passenger seat, we were bouncing and fishtailing around so much. Woo-hoo!

By the way, the temperature is finally up to 11 degrees. That does not include the wind chill, which probably has it below zero. Doesn't matter, it's still beautiful! I hope it sticks around so we have a white Christmas...
