After watching with great expectations how the bulbs in my garden were coming up I was laying odds against the scare of new snow. Granted the below freezing temperatures did arrive but the 'orange code' predicting significant amounts of snow seemed a bit much.

At three a.m. this morning it began with tiny flakes but falling heavily. This morning at 6 it was the same and with camera in hand I made it to the gate to show you what it looks like.

In the city it is probably being cleared but I've decided not to even clear the sidewalk but wait for it to melt. It's been a long winter. Throwing more wood on the fire, pouring another cup of coffee and curling back up in bed.

Anyone care to share their plans for the three day week-end? Skiing or gardening?
