Let It Snow

Oh, the weather outside is frightful, and the fire is so delightful. The snow finally arrived. We've had a couple of rainy days yesterday and the day before with some generous amounts, almost 2 inches in some areas. Wow. And, initially, we weren't expecting much snow. That has changed. The rain changed over to snow early this morning, and now, we're supposed to get 3 to 5 inches. It's actually really nice. I've got the weekend off, and can relax and just watch the snow fall. We ventured out this morning to get some snow boots for my daughter, grab a baby gate to keep our dogs out of the basement, and grab a pizza at Papa Murphy's Pizza. All in all, it's a great day! And, I have to admit, the traction control on our car is wondrous invention. When the rain was changing over to snow, we did have a period of freezing rain. So, the inch or so of snow that we've already got was deposited on thin layer of ice. While other cars were spinning and sliding, our Honda Accord was driving through it like butter. You've gotta love technology! Happy New Year!
