Living in a Winter Wonderland

This picture is from our first snowstorm of the season, but we are expecting our seventh snowstorm in seven weeks this evening through tomorrow. It is only forecasted to snow a couple inches, but we are tired of snow! The good thing about this storm is that it is snowing more up in the mountains, where we really need it. The snowpack in our mountains is what provides us with much of our water supply in the summer, so we are thankful for snow up there!

Everyone keeps saying all this snow is very unusual for Denver, for which I am thankful! A typical winter in Denver, consists of a few small snowstorms that typically melt the next day. That is why we live in Colorado and not some other state where they have bitter cold and snow all winter. Our high tomorrow is forecasted to be 7 degrees! We aren't used to this! It has been very beautiful. But enough already!
