Hola Gente!

We finally had our first real snow storm and while everyone is not so happy with it, Miguel and I are trilled!!!

Today, we spent part of the day driving (against many people's desires) around town. We visit our favorite park (now covered on 10 inches of snow) and we also visited a park we often walked to with the dogs....

Enjoy the pics (with little captions) just for fun.

This tree is in Taylor Park, two blocks from our house where we take the dogs for quick walks early in the morning before going to work.

This is me, of course, at the stairs of the tunnel in Taylor Park.

This is Miguel at the same spot.The side of the house, our drive way from the back yard to the street. Can't drive the car forward anymore. The snow is too high for the car.

I figure this picture would give you a perspective on the snow. Our dogs are walking by footprints, which are about 4 inches deep.


This is Taylor Park once again. You can't see the running trails but there are two. The benches are around a fountain, which is completely covered in snow.

This is one of the parking lots at the National Park, about 5 blocks from hour house. People have been skating here... oh, the strangest of our lives.

This photo is at the National Park, by a tree.

This picture is at Taylor Park. Behind us, tennis court, covered in snow. Picture taken by timer.

At the National Park, people are sledding, right behind me. Here, I'm simply posing because I wanted my dogs in the picture.

Our house at the end of the street. You can't see it because the street curves to the right. But yes, this is how it looks right now.

My footprint in the backyard, a yard where there is nothing but snow.

I love this picture. Miguel midway on the steps. The dogs looking down at me. Cool and cold.

A look at our house from the back. I'm standing by the garage. I love it!

Okay, maybe things will be more interested later. I need to take pictures of the school. I'm sure the university looks pretty but since classes were canceled, I didn't bother to go.
