upside down weather . . .

Backposted (because how ever many years from now I'd regret not having posted these pictures along with their stories)!

Less than 48 hours after we had temps in the 80's, we had . . .

S N O W !

And not just a dusting, either.

Todd and I enjoyed a play day in the fluffy stuff.  I even managed to make a snow angel! You'll notice there is no photo showing the making (or the getting up and down) of said snow angel.  <grin>

We weren't the only ones out enjoying the snow.  I saw plenty of critter tracks, including an intersection of deer tracks that went in every direction!  We also spotted this grand creature . . .

I adore the pileated woodpeckers; we've had a pair living here as long as we've been here.  

Todd grabbed this pristine shot down at the upper pond . . .

I think this may be my favorite picture EVER taken at the camp! (At least, one that didn't have any grandchildren in it!)

Speaking of which, the local crew also enjoyed this surprise snowfall . . .

Even baby brother enjoyed his first experience with the white stuff!

Isn't he just a doll baby?!  

We finally came inside and dimmed the lights and enjoyed the lingering spirit of the Christmastide holiday.  All is calm; all is bright.

It was a pretty magical day, all around.
