Snow Day!

We often are asked whether it snows here. Well....

The late-January storm provided us lots of excitement! Seeing white outside is a special treat.
Here is this morning's view toward the Black Hills which are hidden by snow clouds.

Here is the back of the house. Beautiful white snow outlines the house's architectural features.

Looking toward the Verde River, the back yard is blanketed in white.
