The White Stuff

I looked out the window this morning while it was still dark outside. Of course at this time of the year that could still be only 7:45 a.m. I heard a loud rumbling which turned out to be the garbage truck in front of our neighbour's home. The lights from the truck highlighted the large flakes of snow that were falling. Kind of a beautiful sight if you don't think of the end result of that snow piling up on the road. It is -4 C this morning and I don't think we are actually getting any significant amount of snow yet but as the day lightens, I can see snow on the rooftops and the accumulation of it on the edges of the lawns and sidewalks. Oh boy, I guess I should have gone shopping for boots when I didn't have to worry about snow. Hopefully, the sun will burn it away and I will have another opportunity to go get boots while the sun shines (or is that supposed to be 'make hay while the sun shines')! Whatever!
