Record Snow

Just a FYI. West Haven and Roy got the record snowfall 11 inches. I measured 10 at our house and it snowed for a couple of hours after that. This was on Sunday it its now Tuesday and there is still snow on the ground. It has settled and now melting but there is 2 to 3 inches on the ground. Hard to believe it is still mid October. As you all know we live out by the Lake not in the Mountain or Foot Hill area. We are about 9 miles south of Cindee & Steve and she said they only got about 3 or 4 inches. Utah weather crazy eh!

October Snow Storm

It is snowing giant flakes, but hard to see with the camera!

My poor plants, you can see the amount of snow piled on the chairs.


I could have got a better picture if I had been willing to get my feet wet

Today is the 12th day of October, and Mother Nature is giving us a taste of the days ahead Winter! Say it is not true, it was in the 80's last week. This morning we woke up to about 3.5" of snow and it is still snowing hard. We should have known something was up as we snuggled to keep warm under our light weight summer bedding. My beautiful potted plants I tenderly tended all summer are buried, they too are probably wondering what happened. Tom was just saying it was warmer in Anchorage AK yesterday than it was here. Sarah, you will probably have a fun time in the garden center today.

These pictures were taken about an hour ago and it is still snowing hard. Guess we better get out the hats and gloves and plan on shoveling.

THRILLER

Last week Natalie called me and asked if I would like to go see Thriller by the Odyssey Dance Theatre. I immediately said no with out even thinking. I had seen clips of it on TV and wasn't impressed. She talked it up to me saying she heard it was very good, so as usual I caved and agreed to go. She said it would be a girls day out that Christa and Steph were going too. Well Saturday rolled around and we all set out for Weber State University for the Matinee. The seats were great, the show I would recommend to anyone. It was creative, funny, and a bit scary at times.
Megan, Ryan all I could do was think of you two, as the Gould's roamed through the audience before the show, knowing how you two love Halloween. I jokingly said to Natalie as we were entering the Browning Center, "Don't they know they could give an old Lady a heart attack" Just then one of them stuck her head out from behind a column about an inch from my face and hissed. I almost had the big one, I didn't see her until she was there!
Needless to say I am glad I didn't pass up the opportunity to go. Now I am in the twilight of my life I need to experience it all, even Thriller.
