Yesterday, something historic happened. At least, it's historic to me. It snowed on me, for the first time, on my birthday. It's been years since we've gotten more than a trace. Yesterday, we totalled nearly 6 inches of the white stuff.

Even better, the snow was a good consistency. Nearly perfect for snowmen and sledding.

Here are some pictures. I especially like the red birds coming in for a feeding frenzy.
