First Snow

Sunday... and Monday     We have about 3 inches now up here in Nikiski, Alaska.  Pictures will be coming soon when i have time to post them.  Leaving to go play hockey now.  PS i really like those photos of Dad and Mom, Paul - You did a good job!

OK i added the photos to prove when we had the first approximately 1" of snow.  Then on the 1st and 2nd of Nov. we had some huge winds that knocked trees on to power lines all over the peninsula.  Look at the cottonwood tree in the bottom photo.  The wind broke it off at the stump and it did not even scrape the bank.  It just jumped about 5' into the driveway.   Lois Ann did not have to go to school on the 2nd because the power was still off.  Today is the 3rd and we now have 6-8" of new snow.  Winter has arrived!!!
