Wordless Friday: Out our window

Although the blogger theme is Wordless Wednesday, Tracing the Tribe doubts the snow will still be here then, so here's our morning panorama:

Patches of blue sky are already peeking out from the clouds, so the snow may disappear even sooner.

Tracing the Tribe understands that for those readers who live with this all the time, it may not be as much fun!

For us, it is still a beautiful novelty.

New Mexico: It's snowing!

Today has been very different.

After a long time in the Middle East, Tracing the Tribe is watching snow come down!

This morning began with cold rain and, within just the past 10 minutes, it has begun snowing ... and sticking!

The weather reports predicted this, and since I barely remember how to drive in the snow - it's been a very long time - yesterday we made a supermarket run in case we had to stay home for a day or so.

Now I have no excuse but to catch up on a mountain of email and blogging.

I don't think our snowfall will rival my good friend Thomas MacEntee's Chicago blizzard but - for me - this seems quite enough!

Mother Nature also seems to be preparing me for my February appearances at the RootsTech conference in Salt Lake City!
