Let it snow!
Nov. 23rd, 2005 08:21 amI think I jinxed myself. Yesterday, while it was raining and raining and raining, I thought of a NH saying
lyda_pearl had told me in October when we had our first snow of the season. It goes something along the lines of 'if snow sticks before Halloween, then it will cover by Thanksgiving.'
As I said it was raining and raining and raining as I thought this and it occurred to me that it didn't really look as though that particular bit of folklore would be proven true this year. Two hours later it was snowing and now it looks like a winter wonderland out there.
We don't have more than a couple of inches on the ground, but everything is clean and white, and there are still a few soft flakes floating almost aimlessly through the air. I don't know that this snow will really stay all winter, but it certainly makes for a pretty Thanksgiving.
