Snow Time In Rio Rancho
We got our wish and the snow is falling... our sleepy guy is getting a blanket of snow!! Hopefully this is just the beginning!! There will be more!!! Now you folks in the Frozen Hinterlands won't appreciate this!! But we are at about 5,500 feet here and do not get significant snows - so we celebrate each one. For a few days we have frozen splendor!!
In the mountains though, they are dancing in the streets - or the slopes as the case may be - because Taos, Angel Fire and Sandia and the rest of them are in heaven!!! Jemez is due for a foot or more!!! This means good skiing and a better water level for all of us in the Spring!!
Jack will probably we taking me to work today because, while it is fine now and roads are wet but clear - when it is later in the day those roads will freeze - and this former Florida gal knows nothing about driving on ice. It is the drive home that will be dangerous - I will need my New Mexican Man with a 4x4 to get me home safely!! We will watch and see how it goes. It is beautiful - that is for sure!!
This was in the morning
This was later in the afternoon - we got much more snow in the end - but I did not get pictures. It was beautiful and inspite of the inconvenience there were few complaints!!
