It snowed again overnight. This morning there was a fluffy two-inch coat of
\nit on everything. <\/p>\n

I was up before sunrise warming up the ol’ digicam. "These are gonna look

Daffodil bent down under the weight of the snow. It’ll all be gone in a couple
\nhours and the flowers’ll be standing up straight again. <\/p>\n

\n<\/p>\n

One more look at the neighborhood. <\/p>\n
