Carolina snow

It's all gone now, but we've had a decent amount of snow this winter. I love snow, and I'm disappointed I didn't get to experience my hometown's Snowpocalypse. I'm also bummed that what little snow we did get interfered with Andrew's visit for my birthday. We were going to have dinner with his sister, brother-in-law, and nephew, but the roads were too nasty to get together. Here's what it looked like:



Then last weekend we had just an inch or so overnight, enough to make everything look really pretty. These pictures don't do it justice - if I had felt like carrying my camera on my run to Whipoorwill Park I could have gotten some lovely shots. For only about half an hour or so the clouds cleared and the snow was still on the trees against a bright blue sky background.







It completely melted away by the time my mom arrived at 2:30.
