Obviously, with the country's second tallest mountain in the state, and passes through the Cascades, we get to see our fair share of snow: Mt Rainier gets about 200 feet a year, and the passes get anywhere from 50 to 100... but that's in the mountains...

Down in the lowlands, near the Sound, snow is a fairly rare thing... MAYBE once or twice a year, if at all.  Last year, we didn't get any at all, and it only frosted a few times...

That streak ended on the 20th, though... it snowed.  Not a lot, but hey, it was snow!

Here's a shot of my house... with snow in the yard.  Like I said, not a whole lot, but when you don't get much... ANY is a big deal!
	I head to work at 4 in the morning... the last view trips have begun with some ice scraping...
