snow

So, we've had some rather odd weather since we've been here in CT, but the weather last week took the cake (and I think it ate it too). In about 36 hours, we went from 11 degrees and dark, to snowing, to 50 degrees and rain - a lot of rain.

Here is what it looked like when it started to rain (from our living room window)


Then, a couple hours later, there was a nice blanket of snow down.


And of course, the next morning, I had the joy of starting a car that had been covered in snow.


I'm not really sure I missed doing this when I moved to California. While there is something somewhat romantic about a blanket of white covering everything, there is also something annoying about a car that has been turned into ice. What was incredible, was that 4 hours after this picture was taken it was 50 degrees. Weird.
