Here It Comes

We almost made it. We almost made it through November without a snowflake falling. It would have been quite something; I was born in a blizzard so I tend to think of November as a regularly snowy month. And this year we almost made it. But this morning I woke up and noticed that the light coming from outside seemed that little bit brighter and sure enough it was from a light dusting we got overnight. We actually got snow in the cold last couple weeks of October before we enjoyed the latest and, therefore, nicest Indian Summer I can remember throughout (nearly all of) November.

The snow is mostly gone now but it's a pretty good reminder of what's to come. The Farmer's Almanac is guessing that this winter will continue the trend of the last couple and we should see copious amounts of snow. I am now ready; bring it on!

In related news, Dad clearly is not ready for the snow so he booked off last week for a month in Hawaii visiting Alice. Because he likes to edit my writing (wink, wink) he checks the blog and in response to last week's Stella post he bought some beer, hopefully sang that song, and sent this picture:Classic!

Pace out.
