Snow!


That's our weather today here in Colfax, California, at an elevation of 2,300 feet in the Sierra Nevada Foothills. This is the first time we've had snow this season, so it was wonderful to see. We had no precipitation at all in January, so it's going to take some heavy weather to get us up to our 40-inch annual average rainfall and give us some decent spring wildflowers.
We have lots of daffodils in the snow, though. Julian of Norwich would be proud of us - camellias and almond blossoms, too.
