And really cold too. We have finally started to get alot of snow, and it even sticks for a while now. It used to just melt away or get washed away by rain, but it is finally becoming cold enough to last for a while. Today was the first major snow. It was already pouring snow when I woke up, and did not stop until noon. The whole university and town was blanketed in 4 inches or so of powder. It was great, as I walked to class I didn't even feel cold, and I wasn't slipping and sliding on ice, I was happily crunching through fresh snow. Impromptu snowball fights between strangers were breaking out left and right, kids were building snowmen, I even saw someone trying to make a snow angel. After absorbing a few snowballs, I made it to my lecture. Unfourtertnetly around noon it started to rain, so some of the snow melted. Luckily I took lots pictures, and they say pictures are worth 1000 words, so I'll leave you with some of the best ones:
(The frozen lake yesterday, before the huge snow this morning)
(The lake from the other side, looking back at the dining hall)
(Heavy snow begins this morning)
(More snow)
(Walking to class through a parking lot)
(I'm glad my basketball team practices indoor)
(It's already starting to melt and turn into slush)
(A Snowman!)
(Not my handywork, but still pretty cool)
That's all for now, we're supposed to have alot more snow this weekend- so maybe more pictures soon.
