Snow Days






We had a total of about two feet of snow here, which packed down to around 6 inches and then stayed and stayed and stayed. It was cold and dry for a week, so it wasn't melting off very quickly. I woke up this morning to a new dusting of snow and tiny flakes falling from the sky. Of course the weather report said we would have high clouds and no precipitation. I spoke to my older sister in Montana and she told me it was snowing heavily and they have had snow on the ground since Thanksgiving. We discussed skiing, the price of snowshoes, and feeding the wild turkeys that have moved into town looking for sustenance. My business partner and I have started the first of three Electronic Marketing classes through the "local" college. They are internet classes so we don't have to drive all the way to the college campus to take them. So far, so good. We hope to get our website (for Textile Traditions, our quilt/fabric shop) set up for business as soon as possible. Check us out at TextileTraditions.com. Here are some more snow pictures of our town.
