Happy Winter

Only one week into December, we got a couple of inches of snow! I almost couldn't believe it. It started to snow before midnight, and when I woke in the morning, it wasn't melted as I had expected; the ground and the trees were white. It stayed long enough for some pictures, and in shady spots it was there for more than a day.

One day I was taking pictures of raindrops, the next, snowflakes. It's not something we expect around here.

Really, the reason it felt so odd to have had snow was that we still had all these pretties on the trees. It looked an awful lot like winter was butting in on autumn!
