in like a lion, out like a lamb

March is here, and it brought snow. A lot of snow. Well, a lot of, I've lived in MD my whole life and don't really know what real snow is, snow. And yes, I did go to the grocery store last night (where milk bread and toilet paper was scarce) to get some food knowing that I wouldn't go out today. Because no, I do not know how to drive properly on snowy roads. So again, we got a lot of snow. It's really quite beautiful and I am trying to have a good attitude about it. I actually like snow, but about two weeks ago we were sitting on our back deck sipping iced tea and enjoying the warm sunshine. I am really ready for spring, but thankful for a snow day nonetheless.

Ben "made" me play in the snow with him this morning. I got all bundled up for the occasion.And because my bulky attire was so warm, I did enjoy being outside. You know, it's tough to walk in 6 inches of snow, or whatever is out there.Happy snow day everyone! And happy March... I am really banking on that old proverb proving true- that this month's weather ends more lamb-like than it's lion-like beginning.

Camp looks so weird covered in snow.
I'm used to it bathed in sunshine.
We have only had a week of "snow" here in Oklahoma.
By snow I mean, slushy, ice, powderyish stuff..

LOVE your pictures! I was too lazy to leave the cottage with my camera. Yours capture how beautiful it really was!

Andrew had been complaining to me about the lack of snow in Maryland. He said, "I miss it, that's all."

I kept telling him, "Wait until March Baby, then we'll get a nasty nor-easter and a foot of snow." I hate to brag but I'm thinking about opening up my own farmers almanac and calling it the valmanac - an interpretation of weird weathering events in the glorious state of Maryland.

I love that Ben "made" you go out and play with him. It made me smile. Not a fan either.
