First Snow
Our first snow was on Wednesday. It was predicted the day before, and I was expecting a light sprinkling. You know, October, the very first snow. I didn't even think it would stay on the ground, just melt upon impact. Was I ever wrong! We essentially went directly into the depths of winter with a blizzard. It was -9C (15F) and the wind was so strong I had to walk with my eyes closed half the time. I almost slipped three times in the first 30 yards. Then I got my ice-kegs back. It hasn't really snowed since, but the ground is still covered with ice. Dangerous, slippery ice.
