And here it was just flurries; no accumulation at all; it was kind of nice, though the winter whites will come.

You bring back memories of the Internet my many years in Chicago. However I am glad to be here in 65° weather thank you I think you know what I mean! I love that leaves are still on the trees! Orange girls girl in the backyard now and it’s very very peaceful and there is no snow shoveling LOL Pangie

Hi Bill, Lasaad is right Nature does sometimes put on great shows but mother nature can turn against humanity when tidal waves, floods earthquakes or huge fires rage and torment us. I wish we had snow, we see it perhaps once in every 10 years and not heavy either. Enjoy your first snow fall my friend. Hugs and blessings. Jennifer. Hugs and blessings, Jennifer.

It doesn't snow that much here in Texas, but usually a couple of snow days every year. I hope all is well with you and yours, my dear friend. Hugs, Bill

'With winds blowing, snow flakes are slowly falling'. A lovely haiku as the first fall of snow.

Thanks, Valsa. I like the snow, but the cold and ice and sleet is not much fun as I age. I hope things are going well for you. Have a blessed day my friend. Bill

As I get older I prefer to watch it from inside. When I was at work I worked outside but now retired I have a choice lol. Tom

I used to walk outside as long as it was above freezing, now it's if it is above 50 degrees. lol I do like to look out the window and see snowflakes falling or a little snow fluries. Thanks for the comments, Tom. Bill
