Snowfall in Vegas

We decided to settle for a while here in Vegas because we thought the winters would be milder. It hasn't really been too bad at all, but this morning it was a little chilly when I went out to get propane. As I was loading the tank back into its place in the trailer, I saw a few little dots of white drifting to the ground. Snow! I went into the trailer and told Brian and Zorah it was snowing. "Just flurries, though," I said.


Anyway, we ended up going out for lunch in one of the many places here that doesn't have any windows. When we went back outside, it wasn't flurries anymore. There was accumulation, and the snow was coming down fast and hard. It looked kind of like a snowstorm, but this was Vegas! So today, Zorah played in the snow. Someone said he didn't remember this happening in the 18 years he lived in Vegas. Someone else said 30 years ago. So I am sort of glad we were here for it. Got a neat picture too.
