Termination Dust


'Round here we call that first dusting of snow on the mountain tops termination dust-meaning ofcourse, summer has been terminated.

Last year it hit September 1st. I was OK with that. It was, after all, September. And it didn't snow until Thanksgiving. Sooo, imagine how unhappy I am that the "dust" hit August 11th this year!

But, no matter what this winter may bring, there is something so beautiful about that first sprinkle of snow on those mountain tops. It's like God dusted them with powdered sugar.

Great photo of Uncle Brandon and the kinder and the snow is unbelievable in Aug. We're getting 10-12 inches of rain today courtesy of Ernesto. Ocean View Ave is completely under water, waves on the Bay are 6-8 feet - quite a sight. Love, Poppy
