I realize that I'm a bit spoiled because my commute to my desk takes all of 10 steps. It's Steve that has had a better introduction to the wintery reality as he scrapes the car off every morning. But still...
We had our first snow fall on Sunday night. I had been in San Francisco until Sunday morning, so it was even more of a shock to make the fast transition to snow. Actual snow. I'll admit that I thought it something was falling off the balcony above our back door. Steve got a good laugh out of that one!
The first snow of the year is always fun. This was no exception. The snow was originally melting on impact, so it didn't get in the way of our drive to dinner (at Pizza House which was totally not worth it). But by the time we came out of dinner, there was a light covering on everything. The car. The sidewalk. The trees. Good thing we bought a brush a few weeks earlier!
The snow actually stuck around until the morning, which gave us plenty of time to take some pictures. While I'm not necessarily looking forward to multiple months of the fluffy white stuff, it was a beautiful introduction to the Michigan winters that I'm sure we'll come to dread soon enough!
