There's some unusual white stuff falling out of the sky this morning. The air is thick with it. White fluffy little flakes like someone's shaking a huge box of those old fashioned laundry flakes. The wierdest thing is that it is sticking to the ground which is now mostly white with little bldes of grass sticking up in it.

Wait - I think... could it be...we just haven't seen it for so long here in Vermont.

Snow?

It's pretty sad that it's Dec 19th and there's no real skiing yet. Poor Mad River Glen still hasn't opened yet. The bigger places that can make snow have been struggling against the unusually warm weather. There was an article in the paper this weekend about the alternate activities the ski resorts are coming up with for people who made their reservations and just came up anyway.
