It's here...

It's here. It's snowing. I know that it won't stay around but it does remind me of what is to come. It was actually quite beautiful this morning. The trees were coated with white. Sure, there is more yardwork we could have gotten done (isn't there always?) but we didn't. The first snow of the year means that the fall chores end. We turn our attention to hockey and hanging in front of the fireplace. At least that is what the dogs think is true.

I also noticed a significant number of deer in the yard today. I suspect they have always been there but today with the snow, they became more evident. Of course that resulted in significant barking.
