First Snow




Our first taste of winter arrived with a couple of inches of snow. Always a let down after all the news hype about the “worst storm of the season.” Being the first snow of the season does qualify as the worst, I suppose. White is always so much nicer than the grey, cold rain that is typical of winter in Kentucky. Some winters this is as much as we see all year. Every now and then, though, a heavy storm will move through and leave several inches which is actually a lovely break from the winter rain. Christmas approaches but a white one is very rare despite what all the Christmas songs would have you believe.
