And Now Some Snow

It rained off and on most of the day yesterday (.76" total) but at about 4 PM we looked out and saw this:



They were the largest snowflakes we've ever seen. They were all at least 2" and were coming down like we were going to get totally covered in a very short time. Fortunately, the already wet ground was absorbing most of them when they hit the ground. Our temperature was at 34 degrees at that time and it only went down to 33 all night. That's still cold, but we only got a dusting of snow on the ground and with the sun out today (so far), it will probably all be gone by the end of the day. Already for March we have recorded precipitation in 3 out 4 of the days. Enough, already!

We are not excited about going back to work today. We start at 9 AM so that means we close tonight at 6 PM. At least we only have 3 days before we get more time off. Yesterday was one of the few days that we spent at home for the entire day. Josie reorganized her jewelry box and I spent most of the day watching westerns on the Westerns Channel. It was a nice, relaxing day. We are also about caught up on the shows we missed and copied as a result of the Olympics. We are now beginning to get immersed in the new Idol season, and so far, we're not impressed with too many of the contestants. We're sure a favorite will rise to the occasion though. Later...
