06 Dec 2007 - Winter Storm

Last evening we went to the Summit High School Music Concert. Our neighbor's son Tyler and Don and Linda Coleman's son Kevin play trombones in the bands. Summit High School has an excellent music program with nearly 100 students and put a wonderful holiday concert each year.

Last year as we left the concert, a winter storm hit and we could hardly see to drive home. This year was basically the same. It started to snow as we arrived at the HS and by the time we left it was a full winter storm although not as blinding as last year. We woke up this morning to over 9.5" of snow on our deck.

After an early morning conference call (1.5hrs) with Helen's UK customer, she excused herself and told them that she was going skiing. Helen went with our friends, Dave and Marilyn, to Copper. This was her first time out this season and the fresh powder was really great although Copper had only reported 4" at 5:30AM.

Weather predictions are for it to continue to snow for the next couple days and we could get an additional 1-1.5' of snow before Sunday.
