Hello Winter, Indeed

We woke to this unusual scene this morning.

We've had snowy winters here in the past --
but snow is certainly not the norm.
I mean, it's November 24 for goodness sakes.



We bundled up and hit the road to start our normal routine.



My favorite persimmon tree is covered in snow.



By the time I arrived at my destination, the scene looked more like this.
Of course, as soon as we arrived, a "Snow Day"
was called.



Shortly thereafter we started our trek home, which includes a stop near the famous Villa Capra, or La Rotonda, to pick up Miss Maddy,
who was surprisingly playing outside in the snow.



When we got home?
Well, a snowman, immediately, of course.


We invited a neighbor friend over to keep Miss Maddy busy, and Mr. Duncan & I are starting a movie and may even get the Christmas decorations going.

Good day.
Snow day.
