Well, it's back to school today after three days at home due to inclement weather. I loved every minute of it, letting me know that when retirement comes in a couple of years, I will be ready!
Yesterday, our mostly melted sleet gave way to 3-4 inches of beautiful snow. It began mid-morning and continued snowing with the biggest flakes I've ever seen for a couple of hours. It was a dream for a wanna-be photographer--most of these photos are unedited.
I can't even remember the last time we had this kind of snow. We sometimes get a flurry or two on top of a layer of sleet, but this was big, fluffy white snow falling from the sky.
It was beautiful! I bundled up and sat outside on the deck for a while watching the flakes fall from the sky.
And catching a few.
Once again, Joy was in her element. When she wasn't running through the snow, she was inside the house watching it from the window.
Emmi tolerated the cold stuff while I was outdoors, but then was anxious to come back inside.

It wasn't long until almost every surface was blanketed in snow. I measured four inches at my house.
Birds and squirrels were everywhere---on the feeders, in the trees, on the power lines. The brilliant red cardinals provided a stark contrast to the silvery white. Can you spot one below?
I was lucky enough to not have to go to work, I never lost power and had a fire in the fireplace all day long. It was a perfect day, as far as I was concerned.
