It was raining this morning when I got up. But the temperature dropped, and the rain has now turned to snow. The forecast calls for 2-4 inches today. Mugs bought me a new snow shovel yesterday and sleds for the kids. We’re ready!

First Snow of the Season
The rain tries to wash the beauty away
The leaves of red and gold and orange
They lay upon the soggy ground
Broken, battered, torn
Yet, their beauty glowing above or beneath
Refuses to submit to the gray
They shine brightly still
On this dreary autumn day
