This winter season started off with a whimper. No snow, warm temps and entirely too much rain. But the other day?

.

.

The sky started looking angry… and before I blinked?

.

.

We had our first few inches that stuck.

And yesterday?

.

.

An all day storm that really racked up the white stuff. I loved it, but our backyard birds probably disagreed.

.

.

Poor little things. Their feet have to be cold.

.

.

It came down for a solid 13 hours and now it finally feels like winter!

.

.

Guess we won’t be grilling out for a while.

.

.

How much did we get? About a foot, which was enough for our farming neighbor to come plow us out with his tractor last night.

.

I love our community.

I love our state.

I love winter!
