We finally got snow in northern Colorado!

For Thanksgiving, the kids and I went to Colorado Springs. When we arrived, we could tell that they received a good amount of snow. There was at least two inches of it on the grass! We haven't received any form of moisture in quite a while now!!

When I woke up this morning and looked out the window, I saw the blanket of white powdery substance! I couldn't believe that it actually snowed! Yay! Yes, I've come to like the snow and even shoveling it is not really a chore, but something that I do enjoy doing. It's fun to see how deep it is after the work has been completed! There have been many times where the snow has been waist deep after the shoveling has been completed at my home in Johnstown. This morning's snow wasn't that deep. It was more of a powder than a heavy snow, indicative of the dry season that we've had!

I know wher Danette lives, they get a lot more than any snow that I've seen here, and I don't think I would like the snow as much if we got that much!!!

With the snow comes winter driving. That's not so fun!! The drive in to work this morning was a slow-as-you-go commute. I believe my top speed was 40 and that was a little too fast! There were 4 or 5 accidents on my route to work on I-25. Mostly SUVs that travel way too fast for the icy conditions. One car was flipped on its side in the North bound lanes just before my exit from the highway. Thank goodness nothing was wrong with HWY 66 and Longmont wasn't too bad either. As long as there weren't any lead feet around the commute wasn't too bad!
