It's beginning to look a lot like Christmas in Colorado Springs. After some teaser snow storms just after Thanksgiving, we got a real one today - and as usual, they did not predict it. I would guess maybe 8-12 inches? It was nice fluffy stuff, perfect powder for skiing, and easy to shovel, thankfully! My wife and college age son are hoping for a snow day tomorrow, we'll see. If it quits early enough in the evening, the plows get the school bus routes cleared, they will have school anyway. It could still be a late start though. That is when the kids don't go in until 10 or so, to give the plows a chance to do their job. It should be a gorgeous morning, with fresh snow and sunshine.
Hope your Thanksgiving was as good as ours! We had our usual family group, less a couple of families (between work, hospital stays and in laws, it gets harder as time goes on to have everyone at once), and had some guests who were new to the Springs, so it was very nice. I ate too much - as usual, before and after "the feast". I guess it will be a busy month on the tread mill for me!
