Christmas Snow

Our Christmas snow came a day late and did it come! We had 9 or 10 inches in our driveway and it was heavy. Late or not it was welcome as we miss the white stuff. Weather people said we had more snow today than all last winter.

I began ridding my driveway of snow when my neighbour Amazing Grace [80] came over to give me a hand. She was up much earlier and already cleared her large driveway. Grace is a great neighbour.

Our back yard was covered and there was a track of a rabbit trying to make it's way to some cedar branches for breakfast. He had a hard time but finally made the trip pay as he was treated to green cedar bows.

After the busy Christmas rush it is nice to be able to sit back and enjoy a day without any obligations. Our travelling family all got home before the snow storm and that was good as we had no cause to worry. There were so many fender benders as it was the first significant snow for some time.

The snow turns our world into a fairy land, covering the cruel winter ground with a beautiful blanket of pure white snow. I love snow at Christmas and this year we got our wish. This helps to make this year even more perfect.
