We had our first snowfall of the season in Highlands. It started out as a wet rain. Soon it changed to snow... And then it began to stick everywhere except the asphalt areas... By the end of the day the snow began sticking to the asphalt. I carefully walked down the driveway to take pictures of our first snow of the season. Our bear mailbox looked like he was catching snow with his tongue. A few more pictures from the first day... That night I turned on the flood light outside our master bedroom and watched the snow fall as I drifted off to sleep. The next morning the snow was everywhere! The birds were grateful that we hung our feeders... ...and Boots dreamed of warmer days. Later that morning I heard a commotion outside. I went to our bedroom balcony and saw a family sledding down our driveway. The mother asked if it was ok for them to be there and I welcomed them to continue. What fun they were having! Inside Two Holt all was calm... ...while outside Two Holt the snow continued to fall. More snow fell overnight. Winter storm Diego gave us 10” of snow! I challenged friends to make snowfaces! What fun! Here’s the snow face of my friend, Dianne. On Tuesday afternoon I finally got out again to take a few pictures. After I slipped on black ice and shattered part of my iPhone screen, I decided it was time to come inside! And finally I leave you with a few pictures taken by friends and by the town of Highlands. Enjoy! Beautiful! But now we’re waiting on the stubborn Diego snow to melt away. It looks like it might be several more days and cabin fever is already setting in! Merry Christmas, everyone!
