Snow!!!

We had our first snow of the season on Sunday morning (November 9th). I woke up to white stuff everywhere, and as I was leaving for work, a very pretty flurry had started.

The night before:

I did absolutely nothing to doctor up this image. Gorgeous sunset!

Being as I was taking pictures of the sunset that night, I had my camera waiting on the kitchen table for this:

I realize that may not be exciting to some of you, but I just wasn't expecting it. It was much more fabulous in person.

There were still a few small flakes coming down, but most of it started to melt as the morning went by.
This is what it looked like as I was leaving for work. It had started to snow pretty good by then. The snow on my jeep melted because I had started it up 20 minutes earlier and the heater was on inside.

On my way to work, I snapped this picture. There were a lot of other pretty things to take pictures of later (like snow at work, ice crystals in the trees, etc) but by then I was over it.... maybe because I have to work in this now. Yuck! Corey (our apprentice) and I went for a run in it. It wasn't too bad, but I shudder to think we'll be doing fuels projects in this all winter. I certainly don't get paid enough for this.
