January 8, 2012 - Snow Again

Most people think winter in Colorado and snow naturally go hand in hand, but that is not always the case.  I live in a protected area near the foothills.  The big snow storms usually go around us and dump their gorgeous champagne powder gifts on the higher elevations.  This year is a little different.  We have had now seven significant snows.  The snow brings much needed moisture to this semi-arid climate.  I know some places have enough snow they don't need to keep count.  It's just unusual here. 

 

Oh, if anyone missed that Broncos game...... ahem...... they won!  Tim Tebow pulled it out again...
