Snow??? NO....

The sand trucks were mobilized.

The local news went on all night long constantly updating the latest weather and looking for any sightings of the first snowflake.

Events were cancelled.

Grocery store managers were smiling as people flocked in yesterday to stock up on bread and milk.

Dave brought over some packets of hot cocoa to be sipped by the fire as the snow fell outside. Ahhhh..

The television continued to flash the latest radar as we all watched in anticipation and excitement.

We all went to sleep last night hoping to awaken to a postcard snow scene.

Well, it was all much ado about nothing...

If you look really closely at the picture taken in my backyard this morning, you might see the slight dusting of some of the white stuff on my outdoor chairs and table top.

But, that is it.

The great "Snowstorm of 2008" was a bust.

sigh...
