After watching the weather and seeing that huge portions of the nation were getting winter weather of some sort, I admit I was a bit disappointed to have NOTHING happening here!

We are only supposed to get an inch or so of snow -- hardly enough to create a clean slate for animal tracks. Still, it's magical out for a while, anyhow.
