No surprises this morning when the snow began to fall except for the amount. The forecast said 1 inch accumulation and we got 3. Actually it was a lot of fun to see half dollar sized snowflakes falling at times. Tomorrow is good for 3 more. Tuesday back up into the 40’s, so much for April snow.

It’s amazing what a lot of sunshine can do for your mental health. A little bit of sunshine helps, but a lot really does the job.
