My online journal where I share my interests in photography, nature, coffee life, journaling, fountain pens, bicycling, spirituality and asking deep questions.
I glanced at the clock, it said 5:30 am. The darkness of my room let me know it was cold outside, making the bed feel warm and inviting. The sun would be rising in an hour. I had plenty of time to dress and drive out to County Road 15 in search of a morning sunrise. I pulled the covers up, snuggled under the comforter and closed my eyes.
2-3 inches of snow fell Friday and Saturday which I don’t mind. Well I have my limits on how much. What I do mind is when the temperatures falls and falls and falls. The snow and frost can be beautiful but the cold that goes with it are not pleasant. So, this morning at 8:01 am it was -5 (F). And, check out that humidity. Baby, it’s cold outside. Lets’ see if it reaches the predicted 27.

Finished a 4-day trip this afternoon. We have 2-3 inches of snow on the ground and temperatures are dropping. It is suppose to get down to 4 degrees tonight. My opinion is that Cancun sounds pretty good right now. Hope everyone has a good week.

Late Monday afternoon the 30% chance of rain turned into great big beautiful snowflakes, dumping about 2 inches in Fort Collins. So much for weather forecast accuracy. It continued throughout the night then showed us blue skies by noon. In my eyes those big wet snowflakes make it a gorgeous snowfall. By 9:00 am I was excitedly heading to the Environmental Learning Center. I wanted to walk the trails and see the beauty nature was presenting. A wet snow like this one must be felt and experienced up close.
