More on the snow

Driving in to work this morning was absolutely gorgeous. I felt like I was back in Northern Virginia or rural Maryland. Along the interstate on the south side of town, there was 2-3 inches accumulation. How fun to see palm trees and prickly pear cactus coated in snow!

Of course, no one here knows how to drive in it, and of course the county has no snow plows or salt. So the driving was extremely defensive and slow. My commute took me about half an hour longer than normal. But the visual treat made it okay.
