Snow!!

What an incredibly wimpy winter. After last year's record fallls, we were totally let down by the warm weather this year. Still cold, but not very. And sadly, only a few isolated days of soon-melted snow.

But now that everyone's already switched out their snow tires, the snow cometh! The "First Gales of Spring" swept in some seriously frigid days, and today I awoke to a beautiful layer of snow. Happily, the snow is still falling!

My love of snow alternately amuses, confuses, and annoys my coworkers. I have little sympathy for their "driving" motive-- the snow here is usually very wet, there's no black ice, and the average speed limit is a whopping 35 mph.

I'm crossing my fingers for a full day of snow-- then I can relax after work by making a snow totoro!
