Another Big One








Well, the weatherman said we are going to get another big one in Carroll County. It has been a very white winter here in Eldersburg.
The first flakes fell at 10:32 a.m. We were out with one of the grandchildren when Shirley said look snow, I looked at my watch as this storm may be history. I was amazed to hear on television that the area has never had two 12 plus inch snow storms in the same winter. I fall under the group that says it snowed a lot when I was younger. I thought there were a few winters that were white when I was younger. I remember doing a lot of sledding on a hill in Union Mills.
I grabbed my camera and shot some of the first flakes, like folks leaving Safeway, a few flakes on a strawberry plant and water on a car window. We filled the bird feeders, ran to the store, the cat tucked in on the sofa as did the dog, so let it snow.
