We finally joined the rest of North American and got some snow. Yesterday we had a total of 3.5 inches. You East Coasters and Midwesterners are scoffing, but by Portland standards this is a blizzard. Schools closed, roads are impassable, and there's round the clock news coverage of the "Winter Blast."
It's snowing!
Portland's credibility as a bicycling mecca suffered a blow when the "Worst Day of the Year" ride was canceled due to bad weather.
The snow was too dry and fluffy to make a full-size snowman, but we managed this little guy. (That's a baby carrot.)
As long as you have the right headgear, you'll be ready for anything.
Lucky for us we live on a hill, and our neighbors whose kids are grown loaned us the use of their sled.
The 74th Avenue two-man bobsled team going for the gold!
Everyone took a turn.
Someone really enjoyed his first sledding adventure!
Well, it's coming down again out there, so we're off for more snow fun!
So fun! Our sledding was just for Cora, and only on flat ground! Maybe one day we'll get to a hill!
