Snow, Snow, Go Away, ....

Don't bother coming any other day!!

One of the reasons we moved south was to avoid snow! Three years without snow and a lot of nice weather bragging rights and this is what we wake to this morning -- SECOND snow of 2009! So much for none expected in Lumberton! And, at 4 am, there was not a flake to be seen anywhere. This was taken at 8 am and it's still flurrying.

But, let's not forget, snow scares them here. Yes, you guessed it, 2 hour delayed opening while they try to figure out if they are going to close school! If only they knew what snow was really like.

But, panning around, it does look pretty. A brief and pleasant reminder of "home".

Okay, moments over, let the melting begin!

We're expecting temperatures of 15 tonight and HOPE this is gone before then or school will be cancelled tomorrow. Thankfully, there is no moisture expected along with those temperatures so it should be an uneventful night tonight!
{fingers crossed}
