Early Snow

This is what we woke up to this morning. It has been a while since we had this much snow this early in the year. There have been many years when we didn't get snow before Thanksgiving, and certainly many more when we didn't have it by Halloween. The funny thing is that it has stayed much warmer than normal for most of September and even the first few days of October. Just in case you think I pulled out an old photo of last years snow. Look at how green the leaves are on this tree and how purple the flowers are in the bottom of the photo. It will be interesting to see what it looks like in a week or two.
