Winter Wonderland (In the DESERT?)

This is what my street looked like when I got home tonight. I spent the day at Panera Bread studying and watching the snow fall. Billy finally called me and told me to get home because the roads were getting bad. He wasn't kidding. People in Vegas are not used to weather like this - our weather people on the news usually are recorded robots that say, "today will be sunny and clear". But not today. It was the first time I ever had to scrape the windows on my car. The snow came down hard and fast. It was exciting until l I started to drive on the freeway. People were fish tailing and swirving all over the place. I have to admit I was a little nervous.

This is Billy shoveling the driveway for me. That's something he's never had to do for me before. He's so good.


There was so much snow that my Sumac trees were weighted down - don't know if they will recover.




This was fun to have a little different weather - especially around Christmas time.
