Snowy snow snow snow

When it started snowing I was thinking of the Sorooshians, being here last winter and missing snow. I wish they could see and play in this. These photos were taken a couple of hours ago and it's twice as deep now. Christmas-card snow is all well and good, but sometimes it's the snow on fences and pipe-cleaner-men and basket-ball hoops that's the most fun.

So for any of you who don't ordinarily get to see snow, here are some oddities. and my clothesline has three inches of heavy snow, but it just wouldn't photograph well.

Holly did this one, upward.
