What a beautiful sight to see this morning; snow on the
mountains and the lake still a brilliant blue. Three inches on October 27 and a prediction for six more
inches tomorrow is a bit early, even for me. Of course having snow this early
causes a bit of anxiety. The wood is not stacked, my daffodils haven’t been
planted, the entire garden needs to be put to bed, the snow blower needs to be
attached to the tractor, and the deck furniture needs to be stored. It will get
done, next week, when the snow has melted and the temperatures rise. Winter is
not here, yet. She is just giving us fair warning. She is coming. I hear those
sleigh bells ringing…
