A Winter Surprise

Image

The day I took the pictures of all the leaves, i took this picture too.


Image
The next day, I took this picture. Funny how the weather can change so quickly, no matter where you are.



Image

It was Sunday morning. I woke up and could not believe that we were having snow on the first day of November. (Last year the only snow we had came in February) Having grown up in Kansas, I'm used to getting pretty excited about any skiff of white on the ground, and this time was no exception.


Image

I pretty much felt like the kid on the left. These boys were having a blast.



Image

This one paused long enough to let me take his picture.



Image

The street in front of my building.



Image

I walked to this park and took a bunch of pictures while the snow continued to fall. I loved seeing all the fall leaves covered in white.



Image

It was really cold out there, but I didn't really notice.


Maybe that's why I got sick later that day and had the flu all week. :-)
