Snow day

Well we had some pretty decent snow fall here in Prescott, AZ last night. Not really all that thick, mind you, but enough so that the neighbor's kids decided to have a snowball fight. When the snowball fight degenerated into them throwing snowballs at peoples vehicles and apartments, I went outside and told them to knock it off. Suprisingly, they listened and went inside.

So there's a nice blanket of snow on everything, adding a kind of peacefulness, one might say serenity, to anotherwise mundane scene in a Southwestern state's town. It hasn't stopped the downstairs neighbor from continuing her move out or the hound across the street from baying at strangers that pass by his owner's property.

I should enjoy it though. Soon it will be spring here and with warmer weather. I'm a desert rat at heart having grown up with 100-110 degree summers with the odd 120 here and there. I love the heat, but I've come to appreciate the snow. Like the hot Arizona summers it too has a soul soothing quality about it.
