SNOWFLAKES AND RAINBOWS

12-9-09 snow

This is what it looked like outside when I went to bed at 11 o'clock last night.  It was the purest blanket of white snow that lit up the night.  I LOVE the smell, sound and feel of freshly fallen snow.  It's the icky dirty stuff that I can't stand.

So, we woke up this morning to several inches of crunchy, icy snow.  The roads were slick and all the local schools were canceled.  Then, at about 3 in the afternoon, it started raining and the sun started shining.  I looked outside and was surprised to see this:

rainbow 3


rainbow 2


rainbow 4

That mother nature is one crazy broad!
