SNOW DAY!

Oh, rest of the country, how jealous of you I have been. With your snow days, and your… snow. That’s about it. I’m not really jealous of negative degree wind chills or having to scrape windshields or shovel ANYTHING.

And I got my dream! Last night it finally started to sleet around 10pm and snowed overnight. I woke up to a very quiet neighborhood and 1-1.5″ of winter wonderland. As soon as the sun came up, I put on my galoshes and went for a walk, avoiding the hills in our neighborhood. There wasn’t enough snow to make me willing to do anything to fall into it.

Here are some iPhone pix I took.

Hopefully those thin sheets will save my broccoli...

And, of course, IKE. Wearing the “coat” Dave made him out of an old cycling knee warmer.

What is going on here?

All of that snow is gone now, of course. It’s Austin, after all.
