What a difference a day makes!  Yesterday the weather was sunny and in the 50s, which is warm for early spring in Colorado.  This morning we woke up to about 3″ of snow on the ground and heavy snow falling from the sky.  By noon we had white-out blizzard conditions.  Around 2 or 3 the snow had abated enough to shovel the driveway and sidewalk.  Then, we went snowshoeing in 12″ of snow…plus it’s still snowing.  There are conflicting reports on how much snow we will continue to get tonight.  The blizzard warning is over, now we are just under a snow advisory.  But should still get anywhere from 1-8 more inches of snow tonight, then possibly another 1″ tomorrow morning.  It always figures that the snow falls around trash day.  And that saying the post office has about “Neither rain, nor sleet, nor snow…” does not apply to Colorado…at least not my neighborhood.

At least Hayley has had the full spectrum of Colorado’s schizophrenic weather during her trip.  All that’s left for tonight are elk burgers on the grill (yes, we bbq regardless of the weather), down a few more rounds of hot cocoa and we still need to get in that game of farkle!
