snow!

When we woke up, everything was white, the back door was open, and there was a note on the table from squirrelmonkey saying, "I may be gone some time. Playing outside in snow."

Now both schools are closed and there are excited monkeys of assorted sizes having snowball fights everywhere.

The garden looks like this.



(Note no footprints although squirrelmonkey was out there quite recently assembling the dirty snowball by the shed. It is falling FAST.)

So pretty! I love actual snow. The ice we got was pretty in a nightmarish way, but not worth the trouble! On Saturday night, warm air moved in and caused fog. Combined with the dark areas of the city, we started to feel like we were driving around after some kind of apocalypse and we watched suspiciously for zombies. ;)

I love it too, and this was the most I've ever seen. (The year in Canada doesn't count.) Now we have sleet and slush, probably for days and days - it's yucky in the streets, but still fun for the kids in the park. I've never seen an ice storm and I'm fairly sure I don't want to.
