Well, we finally got a "real" snowstorm for the first time since the spring of A.D. 2007. It began snowing on A.D. 2010 February 25 and it didn't stop until today. During that time, we got 18 inches (45 centimeters) of snow. It was the second-largest snowstorm in the six winters that I have lived in New York. (The largest occurred in a 24-hour period on A.D. 2007 February 14 - we got 20 inches) It has been wonderful to have more than a few inches of snow covering the ground for a change. I only wish it had come at Christmastime so it would've looked like this for the past two months! Thanks be to God for such a beautiful sight.
