Snow, Finally.

This winter had gotten off to a pretty lame start. This weekend fixed it a bit. We've got about 12-14" of ultra-light, powdery snow so far and it looks like we'll end up with 15" or so by the time it stops later this morning. The dog was in a hurry to go out this morning, so I let her before I followed to shovel a spot. She took one step, realized the snow was deeper than she is tall, and went back in. Smart dog. It's currently 10F here. That's our low for today so far, it's been as high as 13.6F since midnight and that is the warmest it's been since Thursday. Here are a couple pictures I just snapped:
