About 4 inches of it I guess. And now it's raining, and raining and .... you get the picture right.

We need to focus on that and not necessarily on the crappy, snow covered roads or sub zero temps.

Here it is generally not a snow beauty but we do have wonderful skeleton trees mixed with tons of green pines and other year round green shrubs and trees. (thank you magnolias) Fortunately for us today starts the warm up and we should be in the 50's tomorrow just in time to head for the lake.Anne in the kitchenhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01533249631969001657noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6173509801114364154.post-66280252118900412002018-01-18T10:16:32.081-06:002018-01-18T10:16:32.081-06:00This snow and 2 degree F weather is not what I sig...This snow and 2 degree F weather is not what I signed up for when I stayed in the South.Practical Parsimonyhttp://www.practical-parsimony.blogspot.comnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6173509801114364154.post-11159793795109193392018-01-18T07:45:23.115-06:002018-01-18T07:45:23.115-06:00Ugh.

DH, though, couldn't stand the heat of the summers in the southwest, though, so here we are in the Puget Sound. It was a compromise on his retirement. Typically it's no colder than low 40's, and rarely snows. When I get beleaguered over the gray skies, I remind myself that you don't have to shovel rain.Meg B.https://www.blogger.com/profile/09871105973774159424noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6173509801114364154.post-62765674250686100112018-01-18T07:28:57.244-06:002018-01-18T07:28:57.244-06:00"To every thing there is a season, and a time..."To every thing there is a season, and a time to every purpose under the heaven."slugmamahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12728856166374248591noreply@blogger.com
