Late October snow storm

(Plus a few other pics.)

October 28 and 29th we had our first snow of the season, and it did in fact suck. I always think it sucks, because I hate cold and snow, but it felt particularly bad this time around. It had been nearly 80° earlier in the week, and the fall colors were still going strong. Plus it just felt mean to have our very first snow be 6 or 7 inches, rather than just a dusting or so! I'm still a little annoyed that it put such an abrupt end to my enjoyment of October right before Halloween (though I did my best to scrounge it back up.)

And now in November, we've had Fall Part 2, which feels weirder, but I'm not really complaining about it. Yes, I know it's a sign of how inescapable climate change has become, but I'll enjoy the warm for now.

(Alex took this picture.) Bella agrees with how I feel about this whole snow thing.
