When I visited the farm the other day, I found snow on the ground and more falling from the sky.
Big fluffy flakes!
The flowers emerged a little too early.
It wasn’t much snow but it did make everything very pretty.
Corvallis Slushpocalypse
Yesterday evening, Oregon State University decided to start classes two hours late today in case the forecast snow came to pass. This morning when I woke up at 6:30am, I saw several inches laying atop my car. By the time I got out of the house at 7:30 the snow had turned to slush. This is a snowman some of my residents built outside the Phi Delta Theta fraternity house.
The feared ice-covered roadways turned out to be nothing more than a bunch of slush.
A few people were heading into work this morning in spite of the delay.
Not many cars in the parking lot.
Slushy footsteps.
There were people waiting in front of the library for it to open. They will be surprised when they have to wait until 10am before they can enter.
Snow on a statue.
The MU Quad covered in slush.
Not as much snow as I would have liked. Better luck next storm.
Driving up Marys Peak Road to Conners Camp in the Snow
Yesterday Drew and I went up Marys Peak. To reach Conners Camp, we took Drew’s trusty Toyota truck. In the video below, see if you can spot the large black pickup that almost slid into us. That was a state police truck being driven too fast for the conditions.
