September 30th - first snow of the fall

Heavy winds and lots of rain last night and this morning. When the clouds began to lift, it gave us a glimpse of the white on the mountains. Can fall really be coming this early? It is true that each season has its beauty, but it's also true that the winter season has it's particular challenges. We have been spoiled the last few weeks with lovely weather here at home. Maybe we needed that in our memory bank so that we can get through the harsh winter months that are just ahead with the idea that things will return next spring. Now, after this storm, we will hope for a few more weeks of Indian Summer, so that we can put the flower beds to sleep and take care of our tools of the summer.
