Now I am waiting for the birds (The cats will problably be more patient than me...)

On Saturday, we had our first snow. This scene makes me want to put on a snowsuit, grab a mug of hot chocolate, and enjoy the winter beauty.

This is first snow this season this far south in the country, Imsdalen backroads Norway.

Out my office window, after two days of unseasonably early snow. A bit bizarre for the first week of November.

And it's still coming down. We are not used to this. Being Texas natives, we only expect to see snow once or twice in February. :D

The golden maple leaves were falling along with magical puffs of snow that glittered in the morning sun.

first snowfall

although i love snowdays, i hate running errands/going out in the snow...unless it is for fun purposes only!

Every year during the first snow I go out and try to do it again, but basically it's impossible.

first snow in Sioux Falls, October 19th, 2020

Taking a picture of the first snow of the season got a great big flash of breath in the frame.

It's not very often that snow falls down in Iowa. Much of the winter it falls sideways, so this picture is very unusual.

There's a couple of inches on the cars.
