I am a huge fan of that first snowfall.
You know, don't you?
That lovely day in December when you wake up with your yard all covered in snow.
And these huge stencil perfect snowflakes are falling from the sky.
A sign that, yes, indeed....
Winter has arrived.
BUT...
Wait a second.
I just checked the calendar and yes, no mistakin' it!!
It is October 12th.
hmmmm.....
And guess who is extremely pleased at this unseasonal arrival!
Yep, Jack.

ReplyDeleteHow far north ARE you?
We often get our first one in October. I try to urge my whole family to get the snow tires on by October 1, but does anyone listen? :<) We've had snow on the mountains.
ReplyDeleteI guess suzyq isn't a snow fan. I am. Loved your pictures.
Holy moly, you got some serious snow today!! We are five minutes from the Ontario/Quebec border and saw a few flakes today, but nothing like this. Wow!
ReplyDeleteLove Jack!
Yuk!! It hasn't arrived here Thank Goodness. I can't wait to see it either in Dec, how about the 25th.
ReplyDeleteAt least Jack is happy. :) Our daughter had snow today too in Fort McMurray. She and her son played in it and he helped her shovel. Great for dogs and kids. lol Enjoy the weekend.
ReplyDeleteWhen we were kids it was not uncommon to have snow in October. We haven't had any yet, but our weather is quite cool so it won't be long. My favourite snow is a heavy snow late in the evening, with the street lights and the snowfall making the sky seem almost pinkish. And all the neighbours out chatting and shovelling. But I can wait. Seriously, December or January would be fine.
ReplyDeleteGoodness me already?
ReplyDeleteI have a bad feeling about what lies ahead this winter! ;)
