Sunday November 16 and the forecast was for snow in the late morning and then beginning again in early evening. We were not to be disappointed. Snowed about an inch or two late morning to our delight with temps just about at freezing.
The sun came out and the snow quickly disappeared. But just at the dinner hour, it began again and gently snowed for several hours to a depth of about 2 inches. We ventured out to enjoy the crisp air and big flakes in the light of the headlamps.
Decision time: 1) head down the hill and go to bed or 2) take the ATV out for a spin up and down the private road for a while. It was not a difficult decision:

Nothing like a spur of the moment ride.
WAKE UP!
The next morning I was once again greeted with the wonderment of four inches of fresh snow. I have learned that one has to get out and enjoy it immediately. For as the sun nears noon, the trees have lost most of their snow coats and by late afternoon most all is gone. But oh those first few hours!

Another Blessed Day. How wonderful the colors of nature are. What a palette!!
