Snow!!

Well, for anyone else who lives here in the Northeast, you all know that winter only -really- started about three weeks ago. Up till then the temps had been pretty balmy for a November/December/January in New England. The temps then dropped but (at least where I am), we haven't really got any -significant- snow. A dusting while I was home a few times, but nothing that gave any real groundcover.

I woke up this morning around 7 to snow! So, I decided to take a picture to preserve it--'cause who knows if it'll be there tomorrow? I don't really like cold weather much, but if it MUST be cold, I think it should be pretty and snowy outside.

So, pictures from my apartment window out onto winter wonderland!

This is my "romantic view of the drainage pond"--we had ducks in it last fall :)

The woods and the baseball diamond (the "woods" are more like a swamp in the warmer months and I wanted to murder me some frogs last Spring...they were SO loud I had issues sleeping some nights.)

The drainage pond, dumpster, part of the circle in front of our building:

Yay snow!

oh man... our tulips and crocuses have started to peek up thru the ground :P

Hehehe....even the dumpsters look pretty in the snow!

gorgeous..i miss the snow....of course, if i was where you are, i'd be cursing it. heh

We had no school today, thanks to that lovely stuff. Of course we only had an inch of it, and it's almost completely melted now. :rolleyes:

I just love trees with snow on them. :love:

Hehe--I live on campus in the Junior/Senior apartments (super nice--I get my own bedroom and bathroom and I share a kitchen/livingroom with one other girl), so I have a feeling they seldom cancel school for snow :( This is my 3rd semester here (I was a transfer) and they only delayed classes -once- last spring...and that didn't effect any of -my- classes that day, of course :rolleyes:

We got about 2" total--and I checked the news station, crossing my fingers, but alas... :)

So, I trudged to class ;) Wasn't so bad though--the snow's beeeauutiful :D

Almost all of our snow has melted. :( But this is what it looked like when we got up this morning.
