October 27, 2011

I am marking down this day.  It is snowing.  Our first one of the season.  Big fluffy flakes covering the ground.  It is a beautiful sight.

A year ago when we moved here - yes, it has been a year - October 1 was our moving anniversary - everyone had dire warnings about the snow in northern Wisconsin.  I checked the official totals from last winter.                                        
                                Hayward=37.6 inches     O'Hare=57.3 inches

Chicago had a blizzard or two.  I'll give you that.  Case got out the snowblower three times last winter.  Most of the time we just drove the 4 x 4 truck and didn't worry about it.

I think I hear Case downstairs waxing his skis...
