Winter Storm

In all of my time in Fort Walton Beach, I had never really seen snow down here. I think we had flurries once, but nothing that stuck to the ground. This all changed last Tuesday when we received between two and four inches of snow. It was quite crazy, and the whole city shut down for the week. Classes were canceled Tuesday - Friday--a bit overkill I think, but there really is no way to clear the roads here. We, of course, took some pictures. First, this is Tuesday afternoon. The snow was starting to pile up and the road was covered.

I also took a movie of it snowing; not sure how well it shows up, but it felt like we were in Colorado.

I also took a picture of the table on our patio. Looks like quite a lot of snow has piled up.

I was also bold enough to try to make a snow angel.

The next morning, we took some more pictures, and we were all amazed how much snow we received.

We probably should have done the polar plunge, but none of us was brave enough to do that. Even Ashley came outside, but only briefly.

Temps are forecast to be up in the 70's this week, so thankfully it appears that winter is over :-)
