I came here expecting a lot of snow, and for the first week and a half there wasn't any... but things have certainly changed! It started snowing on Saturday afternoon and has not really stopped since. In total I'd say we've gotten 2 feet, and this morning it had changed to rain and sleet. We are expected to shovel the walks (yesterday I did that 4 times!), so I'm getting my exercise that way, since walks in the woods are over, I'd guess. When I could see the storm coming in on Saturday, I dashed out for a walk around Suttle Lake. It was ferociously windy, but beautiful—the wind had pushed all the ice that was starting to form to the far end of the lake, piling it up on the shore and swelling in waves against itself. The sound was unearthly, like a million shells rattling.
News from the studio soon, lots happening there (what else is there to do besides shovel???)...
