More SNOW!

While we had a tiny amount of snow the other day, last night we recieved about 3 inches of heavy wet snow. Areas just to the north, south and east of here (pretty much anywhere where it got over 2000 feet) got as much as 8 inches! Here's what it looked like outside the window whan I woke up.

While the snow on the ground meant we could look for fresh tracks (and we did find some of deer, fox, bear, rabbit and grouse), the snow that clung tothe leaves still on the trees meant breaking branches that scared the critters (and the hunters) as well as limited sight lines through the woods. The wind we hoped for came only in dribs and drabs so the snow was crashing to the ground all afternoon.
