Snow!

Well the weatherman was right, it did indeed snow in Ramona last night! We got nearly 2" on the ground waking up to a rare winter wonderland. Take a look:

6:30 in the morning, sun is not up yet.

Small tree outside my bedroom...view from the window

Rosemary covered in snow

Owl nest box with a dusting

Side yard with newly planted lilac and society garlic

Pink iris in a frozen pond

Iced driveway

Sun is up, around 7:30am.

Car's not going anywhere for a bit...not sure it would make it up the icy driveway.

Palomar Mountain View Rd looking towards Palomar Mountain.

While playing on the road I built this little, and I do mean little snowman...had to it's tradition!


The snow melted by noon. It was pretty listening to it melt off the trees and roof, raining down on the ground.

  1. I know you find it exciting, but this is part of why I left Maryland! Hope all of your new plants make it through this.

  2. Sue! I hadn't seen this until just now. Wow! Sometimes Taos (down the mountain, plain old town Taos) doesn't get this much snow, and it's at 7,000 or something. Coolness!!! (literarrrrrrrly)

  3. Sandi,
    This is the kind of snow I like! Beautiful and exciting to see but gone by NOON! :-)

    Tina,
    Wish you had made it up for the planned weekend of sewing. You would have loved the beauty of the snowfall.
