Snow!

Okay, so we are starting to understand that this white stuff comes pretty regularly up here. From what we've been told by other Nutmeggers (that is what Connecticut residents call themselves), today we were hit with a medium-size snow storm. Although we are only responsible for shoveling the snow off of the steps leading up to our apartment, Sarah picked up a shovel and gave shoveling snow a try around the house— even tried the snow blower too! We then went out for some "no-one's-on-the-road-so-let's-visit-the-empty-stores" shopping in Sarah's dad's four wheel drive Nissan Pathfinder and had fun skidding on the turns and going up and down the hills of Bristol (at least everyone had fun doing the sliding EXCEPT Sarah). They are forecasting another storm for Sunday and next Wednesday so it looks like we'll definitely have a white Christmas too. As a matter of fact, we're probably in for our first long, white winter!
