a belated visit from old man winter

Just when we thought spring was around the corner, we awoke to this, which is truly a cause to celebrate in our land of rainy winters...





"Mama, take me out in the snow!" my daughter cried over and over promptly at 6:45 am after looking out the window. And it certainly was a race against the warming temps to get out in time to enjoy this slushy wet white stuff. I had to head off to work shortly after these photos were taken, but I heard of much fun had by a girl and her father, and even stories of snowmen (I believe there was also a snow-mama). It looks like winter isn't done with us yet!

Today's Writer's Almanac poem was lovely, and appropriate for this first day of March.  In like a lion, indeed!
