Temporary, but pretty snow

I knew it would snow! I got up around 4 AM and could see large snowflades blowing past the living room windows and sticking to our large one-piece windshield. The picnic table and our car had a light blanket of the white stuff. Thank goodness the warm electric blanket was keeping the bed warm while I was up taking photos - with the window open! It was cold in the motorhome, but Rick warmed me up when I got back in bed.








We awoke to snow-covered ground and hillsides.





Rick took photos when the sun came up, while I was still in bed waiting for the heater to warm the motorhome before I got out from under the covers. I realize many live in areas where snow is a seasonal event, but having lived in Arizona for many years, this is new to us. A rare event for us.



I doubt that we will fish today. The temps will stay in the 40's, with thunderstorms predicted again.

When the lingering clouds lifted mid-day, we could see the surrounding mountains got a nice top coat of snow. This is great for the lake and river levels.
