Southern Snow

Snowfall in Alabama is rarely a news-driving event, but every now and then, Mother Nature pops in to remind us that with weather, anything can happen. Beginning late yesterday afternoon and continuing late into the evening, she unloaded 8 plus inches of snow across the Tennessee Valley. Here at the house, we managed "only" 5 inches or so. Enough to play in, enough to sled upon, but not enough to survive today's 40-degree high.

So last night and this morning, we took advantage of the gift we receive all too rarely around here. You should be able to click an image below to enlarge.
