Snow Day!

Here is a headline from our newspaper:

Let it snow! Olympia could get 14 inches

Forecast: Expect 1-3 inches today, then 6-14 inches Wednesday before rain washes it away over several days

This morning I got the call that every child hopes for, "school is cancelled".  It has been snowing since Saturday and is hovering right around the freezing mark. So it gets melty and turns to slush, then freezes overnight. Makes for tricky driving in a town that is not set up to handle snowfall and does not have a team of dedicated plows and drivers.
John had some things that needed to be done today at work and went in. He said his office was a ghost town.
We might go searching for a sledding hill later. It is supposed to be warmer and rain on Thursday.
