Second Snow

Last night it got cold enough to snow. This morning the ground is white..barely.  This is our second snow.  The third snow is the one that usually stays for the winter at least that is the old wives tale I go by.

See hardly enough to even consider a decent snow..I hear that people south of us got a foot of the glorious white stuff..I am really happy for them.  Perhaps this La Whateveryoucallit is a good thing and our part of Minnesota will be spared all winter with the storm tracks going south of us. I know I am a dreamer.

It is going to be one of those grey days..I guess I should drag out my snow boots and my parka. ( Insert walking to the gallows music here.)

Goodbye crocs, goodbye crocs with wool socks, goodbye hooded sweatshirts, goodbye Capris and T’s, goodbye lawn mowing, goodbye flies, goodbye butterflies and bees, goodbye birds singing in the trees, goodbye ticks, goodbye snakes, goodbye sunny days sitting near a lake, goodbye flowers, goodbye weeds, goodbye warm weather, goodbye to green and  goodbye to brown,  goodbye to all these things I love except of course the weeds, bees, ticks and snakes:)
