o snow

First we were supposed to have a snowstorm during the day on Saturday, but it got waylaid west and south of us; then we were supposed to have a snowstorm during the day on Sunday, but it got held up and didn't start coming down until after the sun had set.  It didn't snow very long, just enough to barely cover everything down here in the valley; the mountains just got a few more inches, not nearly what we'd been hoping for. 

But this morning, on the commute to work, every branch of every tree was covered like they had been flocked, the snow just wet enough to stick.  The cool thing is that although it was damp-ish snow, it's still Utah, so it was light and fluffy and didn't weigh any of the branches down.  Just beautiful.  Didn't have the camera with me, of course, and mid-morning the clouds had cleared and it was bright blue sky and sunshine, so all the snow melted in down here.  Still, a glorious way to start the week.
