Yep!  First snow of the season, measurable snow anyway.  It was only 2 -3″, but it coated the trees and left it’s impression.

There is something about new snow as it clings to the trees with all it’s white beauty.

It’s a beautiful sight to behold  One which has been an acquired taste for me, as I always hated snow – too cold!

But I have come to appreciate it for it’s beauty.  Living in the mountains we aren’t faced with the same dirty snow as big cities have as it piles up along the roads, mixed with cinder and asphalt.  Our’s is pristine and wild.

Our snow is here… and gone.  It doesn’t last long.  So we enjoy it for whatever time we have it.

And if we’re lucky, we brave the winter elements and get out and take pix… as we did for this brief snow storm.

We were the only one’s on the road, and we felt like we were in our own world as we drove through the abandon forest roads in this magical winter wonderland, with all it’s peacefulness and untarnished spirit.  It was a thing of beauty.
