It's snowing...

So we moved this last month to Lake County and are living on the south shore of Clear Lake. While we're only 35 miles from Santa Rosa as the crow flies, it's an hour and a half away and a windy 70-odd mile drive, due north.

We occasionally get snow in these parts generally only on the surrounding mountaintops and usually between No ember and early February. That said, it's snowing this morning. While it's pretty to see, I'm keeping my fingers it stops soon. My fruit trees are starting to flower across the street, peach and apple blossoms are just starting to open and this snow does not bode well for them. Still, I can count the times on the fingers of one hand that I have seen snow here in this part of California since I arrived in the Bay Area 38 years ago and it is an awesome sight.
