Snow day

I realize the rest of the country has really severe weather to contend with, but for NW Oregon, even a little bit of snow is a big deal.  Sure, it rains here a lot - but we can get magnolias to bloom here!  The fact we're expecting highs in the 20s in the next few days is really, really severe for us. 

So while it was a balmy 29-30 degrees, we took Peach out for the first snow picture:

And I scrapped plans to head to the office in favor of my old bar exam study carrel - the kitchen table.

Yes, that's snow on the rose bushes I didn't get around to cutting back this fall.  Oops.  What more could a girl want, aside from copies of (more) deposition transcripts and exhibits?  Hm...maybe those would be useful right about now.  If it looks like it's going to be awful tomorrow, I'll have to bite the bullet and drive into the office just in case.  However, while I love driving in the snow (and am, to toot my own horn, pretty good at it), Oregonians scare the beejezus out of me in the snow.
