Rain or Snow

Today it was supposed to rain. No problem. Rain I can deal with at this point. It was supposed to hit a high of 59 degrees – cool but doable.

So I’m sitting here at my computer – the power is off so my laptop is playing on battery power now. Of course, no internet, no TV, no heater fan blowing. You get my drift. Fortunately, it is not me, it is the whole park, maybe the whole city.

And it is snowing. Yes, the hills closest to me are now slightly visible and have a dusting of snow on them. As do I, after walking to the front office to see if the power problem was with the whole park and not me. It isn’t supposed to snow at 59 degrees. But I guess the weather didn’t tell the weather guessers (commonly called “weather forecasters”) that is was going to snow today.

Fortunately, it is not a lot of snow and it is melting as it hits my truck and the ground, so the world isn’t turning white. Yet.

Yea!! The heater just came on. So I guess I won’t need to bundle up in everything warm I own (not much) just yet. I’d better get busy finishing the mittens I started. My hands might get too cold to do much.

It’s supposed to be dry and only overcast tomorrow. We’ll see!

Next day!!

It actually dry and overcast. The hills are alive with the sound of . . . snow and snow-making. Deer Valley sent me info about my first day of work (December 1) and info about the snow-making at Deer Valley. Can't wait. Of course, I've got to get new tires for the truck and figure out how to keep my California dreamin' truck alive and warm during, what appears right now will be, a cold winter.

BTW, this picture was taken from my door steps. As I sit at the window with my computer, this is the view I get. I love it!
